to see 3000 people step forward to acknowledge the literal resurrection of Jesus in one day at the peril of their lives based on the evidence of the easily witnessed outpouring of the Holy Ghost is a supernatural event, yet it was seen and heard by an entire city; and its results stand to this day.

these supernatural yet publicly witnessed and uncontested events (and many like them) established far more than one of the world’s major “religions.” Jesus is really not a religion; he is the resurrection and the life.
