Hello again L.A.

Just a few comments. The historicity of Jesus has been as well established as almost any other figure from that time in history, so I don't think it is accurate to say that there is some evidence. As for the age of writing the gospels, there is agreement among scholars that the gospel of Mark was written 30 to 40 years after Jesus' death and resurrection. That is a very short period of time for history from this time period being recorded. I've made my views known in this post https://gerald-baron.medium.com/easter-cuts-like-a-knife-bb560a00b07a, and a couple of subsequent posts dealing with objections.

Of course, the real issue we are dealing with here is what science teaches us about questions that really matter to us, one of those being continuation of life. As you note, science leaves us plenty of room for ideas about that continuation, in your view as energy in a different form. I think there are lots of reasons science can offer for a much more personal, direct and understandable form of continuation. One of those is the conservation of information. What are we, if not information? All our experiences, memories and specific arrangement of cells, molecules and atoms could be codified in information and information could be retained in some form. I happen to believe, in concert with the biblical story, that we were meant for a restored universe and that includes life with our existing information but with a hardware (bodily) upgrade. I guess the good thing about science and this discussion about it, that as much as we have learned about nature and the universe, there is plenty of room for your ideas about it as well as mine, and many others.
