David Fitzgerald who’s book, Nailed: Ten Christian Myths That Show Jesus Never Existed at All I mentioned in my list of resources on the Jesus Myth hypothesis and who also linked back to my list has done an Easter quiz for Skeptic Money

For a teaser I’ll just give you the first few questions:

1. When did Jesus get crucified?

a. At the 3rd Hour (9am), on Friday, the morning of Passover.
b. Shortly after the 6th Hour (noon), on Friday, the day before Passover.
c. He didn’t really get crucified, his identical twin Thomas Didymus did.
d. He didn’t really get crucified, he only appeared to be crucified.
e. We don’t know for sure, since the gospels disagree irreconcilably.

2. What supernatural events occurred at his death?

a. An earthquake hits Jerusalem (actually, two); strong enough to break stones.
b. Supernatural darkness covers all the land.
c. The sacred temple curtain spontaneously rips in half.
d. A mass resurrection of all the Jewish holy men, who crawl out of their graves and appear to many in Jerusalem.
e. All of the above, depending on which Gospel you read.

For the full quiz and the answers you’ll have to check it out on Skeptic .

We all know the standard account:

Jesus was cruficied on Friday and died a few hours later. On Sunday morning the three Marys found him and told the disciples. When Peter and John were told they both ran to the tomb with John beating Peter. Jesus again appeared to them that night at supper, a week later to Thomas, then again while they were fishing, and asended to heaven from the Mount of Olives on the 40th day. Think about it and take a stab at the quiz, you may be surprised.
