I think the whole resurrection of Jesus cheapens the story. The whole point of jesus was forgiveness, when he forgives the people for torturing and murdering him it brings the story to his highest possible conclusion, he forgave and then died.
But he gets resurrected the message becomes weaker as what he forgave them for wasnt as bad as it was before he died. The same way attempted murder isn't treated as actual murder.
And it also cheapens the torture the people put him trough as would a being to whom death means nothing also laugh at the prospect of pain, at worst its a short inconvenience in an immortals time frame a flea bite to you or me. Or more plausible he could go and ust shut off his pain receptors.
Im just saying the story would be better without all the magic.

Christianity, One woman's lie about an affair that got seriously out of hand
What are the Christians gonna do to me ..... Forgive me, good luck with that.
