And that if people don't agree with you, you should never ask why they don't, like Paul suggests, but to attack and demand that they give you another solution instead, and ONLY another solution i sufficient to convince apologists that they're wrong, but he's wrong from the get go, regardless if they got the right suspect because of that. You start with finding evidence and then let it tell you if there's a murder or not, a murderer or multiple, who it might be, etc. Turek starts with: ded body = murder+knowledge of who dunnit and then assumes to be correct by switching the burden of proof by letting you prove it's something and/or someone else. If my mom had died and he was detective, I can promise you there'd be a murder within one day and I did it.

His analogy isn't quite equal either. Mapping the analogy to reality, his suspect x isn't a person. Suspect x is a sock stealing gnome or a fairy, some creature we don't have good precedent for. When a detective finds a dead body the options are usually going to be person, animal or accident. Evidence will likely rule out one or more of these options, an animal attack tends to be pretty distinctive, but an unproven supernatural entity doesn't even enter the equation.

The sparse records tell them the guy witnesses claimed was killed had the name Joshua, but had a nickname: Jesús. Frank: I think this guy was the son of god, was killed for our sins, and has resurrected. Jim: I agree, open and shut case. No one has contradicting statements he was not the son of god. No further investigation needed. One more for my stack of solved cases.

Note how Frank is ambiguously conflating two beliefs here in order to muddle the situation, because on the face of it the second sounds sillier then the first. But that’s because we all assume X is a real person, as would usually be the case - if Franks “X” happened to be “the three headed Prince of Norway who wears clown makeup all the time”, then YES, we WOULD be justified in asking for evidence of X’s existence before we ever got around to whether or not they were guilty.

It's like Turek has completely forgotten how we go about convicting someone of a crime.

Whether or not there is another potential suspect is completely irrelevant to determining that the evidence is insufficient to prove guilt.

I'm sad to say that after having worked on a documentary show about homicide departments and their investigations, the way these two men look at suspects is actually quite common in policing. They often have a percentage of "solved" cases to maintain. So if it takes just bringing in someone who might've possibly done it, then that's what they do. This can lead to wasted time on putting that suspect in jail, awaiting trial, then going to trial only to find out they were innocent, or there isn't sufficient evidence to convict them. Some detectives make absolutely sure that it couldn't have been anyone else, and gather as much evidence as possible, before officially arresting anyone. Sadly, more often than not there are officers who just look for what they *feel* is the more likely person. Don't even get me started on how police interrogations are done in a way that is essentially torture and manipulation that often gets false confessions or improper leads! They don't put those parts in the shows, obviously.

Perhaps the greatest miracle of all biblical miracles is how Christian apologists pump up very thin, gossamer evidence in the New Testament (and the scant extra-biblical mentions) and pray it supports its extremely heavy claims.🤦♂️

Cop 1: The surveillance camera says that suspect A. is the murderer. Cop 2: As i said five minutes ago: show me the camera or shut up! Cop 1: The surveillance camera is very disappointed with you... Cop 2: ...i'm gonna call the captain...

This would be, I think, the perfect time for me to share with the rest of you my favorite quote by the character Gil Grissom from legendary crime drama "CSI": "I could be wrong. You could be wrong. But the evidence is just the evidence."

I have to object on Hitchcock and Scully being bad detectives. In S02E19 "Sabotage", they get so annoyed by Boyle mocking them tat they actually solved the case and threatened Boyle to never to tell anybody bc they're far more comfortable doing desk jobs.

Those detective analogies always remind me of Ace Attorney. “Unless someone else is found guilty, the accused is still on trial.” -Godot

Yep, it's Ace Attorney logic. Only in Ace Attorney the system is specifically referred to as being unjust.

J. Warner Wallace conveniently ignores a number of the Rules of Evidence used in our judicial system in his apologetics videos, and Frank Turek obviously has even less knowledge of detective work.

Ah yes, in any criminal case, you merely look for the most probably suspect you've been able to catch. Because every criminal case must end with an arrest! I think this might be more of a TV detective logic?

I enjoyed very much your movie review of Case for Christ's and would love to see you making one on Netflix movie named Bob Lazar area 51 and Flying Saucers , it would be hilarious if you would compare the evidence for flinging saucers to the resurrection xD

From my point of view it's like this. There is a body on the ground. No wounds found. Turek goes like: X did it. I am like: I don't think that. How do you know? Then he explains, how the body couldn't have just put itself there in this exact way. And bodies don't die like that without outside help. And then the body stands up and walks away.

I've said it before but I'll say it again: Look at the number of unsolved murders, rapes, and other violent crimes, and the number of unsolved property crimes in the U.S. and then explain why you'd have any faith in cops trying to solve a "case" 2,000 years old.

A good detective follows the evidence. Turek is suggesting that a detective must come up with a suspect, no matter how little evidence there is.

One thing seems to be overlooked: If the stories are real dying as martyr is a silly argument. They could have just been resurrected - since it was so common at that time - and continue their work. So either resurrection is bullshit or dying as martyr undermines their own theology.

"After Acts, the disciples just disappear..." Hmm reminds me of King Lear's Fool, who disappears after the storm scene, no explanation given, just written out of the story ! Presumably the Bard thought there was no more need for that character ? And he was a pretty good writer.

Always imagining that the metaphorical body was definitely murdered... To quote Ray Bradbury, "You've got that heart attack-shoestring look about you, boy. And i didn't get much sleep last night."
