"The Resurrection is the very heart and soul of Christianity. Without the Resurrection, Christianity collapses. It’s the standing and falling point of the faith. Therefore, to deny the Resurrection is to cease to be Christian. You might pick up bits and pieces of Christianity here and there, and you might follow Jesus as a wise spiritual teacher, but without the Resurrection the whole thing falls apart." - - - Fr. Robert Barron
Oh My dear Fr. Robert Barron - please read your bible: - When Jesus arrives in Bethany, he finds that Lazarus is dead and has already been in his tomb for four days. He meets first with Martha and Mary in turn. Martha laments that Jesus did not arrive soon enough to heal her brother and Jesus replies with the well-known statement, "I am the Resurrection and the Life. He who believes in Me shall live, even if he dies. And everyone who lives and believes in Me shall never die in eternity".
Next encountering Mary, Jesus is moved by her sorrow. The narrator here gives the famous simple phrase, "Jesus wept". In the presence of a crowd of Jewish mourners, Jesus comes to the tomb. Over the objections of Martha, Jesus has them roll the stone away from the entrance to the tomb and says a prayer. He then calls Lazarus to come out and Lazarus does so, still wrapped in his grave-cloths. Jesus then calls for someone to remove the grave-cloths. The narrative ends with the statement that many of the witnesses to this event "believed in him." Others are said to report the events to the religious authorities in Jerusalem.
Now I ask: can any of you sick bible-believers or theologically-inspired faithfools, please explain: If heaven were already such a happy place, a wonderful paradise for the good souls of the dead, why would Jesus resurrect dead Lazarus back to life once more to live in this world of sin, decadence, crime, deviltry, indeed, a corrupt world infested with fear, ignorance, hate, and war as inspired by those who are spiritually stuck with religion?

POCH, RELIGIOUS FREEDOM ONLY MEANS THAT ANYONE HAS THE FREEDOM TO MAKE A FOOL OF HIMSELF AND TO SHOW THE WORLD THAT HE/SHE IS A MORON.
