What's an empty tomb evidence of except for an empty tomb? If I were to walk past an empty tomb my first thought wouldn't be "Zombies!" I would obviously conclude that aliens had abducted the body.

Someone as important as Jesus would have their remains somewhere and kept sacred if not for his resurrection. And his remains do not exist.
You know, I get a kick out of folks who will reject well evidenced science and I mean science that has boatloads of objective evidence to support it, but will accept what some anonymous authors wrote in stories 2000 years ago as being great evidence.
Anyone can write anything in a book, it doesn't make it true.
I get a kick out of people who reject well evidenced "science" that science can't account for life the begin with.
Thanks for the moon that man is still trying to find out how it got there by the laws of matter and energy only.
Atheist would believe that before they would accept the Creator put it there on purpose.
Although, there is the Shroud of Turin which many believe depicts Jesus

Some of us get a kick out of a boatload of scientist in the year 2014 continuing to argue among themselves concerning the origin of the American Indian. They tout all their advancements in their knowledge of DNA yet cannot settle among themselves whether or not the American Indian originated from the Asians, the Mongolians, the Pacific Islanders, or the Egyptians and they have more than an ample supply of live specimens upon which to get their DNA.
Scientists are really no smarter than anyone else. They are only guessing too.
It is not equivocating, it is common sense. Anything that can be described as running by a set of laws is prescribed/created/invented by an independent external party. To reject this is to reject common sense. I don't think there is a need to say more.
Second time words are put into my mouth, I already said myths don't verify anything. But neither do your statements verify that biblical accounts are myths.
IO is believed by the Maori people as one supreme God, so it is your part to convince me that IO is a different God from the one I believe and is more powerful.
But as I have read, Maori's beliefs do not seem to conflict with the biblical accounts of history and therefore it is entirely possible that they believe in the same God Noah believed but merely called Him by a different name.
Would you acknowledge that it is entirely possible that Maori and Christians believe in the same supreme God?
Then let me tell you a group of early Christians, called the Bereans, tested what they heard from the disciples and examined everything they said to determine their truth.
Believing in the true God does not devoid people of reason and careful study, in fact God encourages people to seek and test the truth.
To be able to believe in a god to the point that one can believe that killing others without any reason is a sacred thing shows the signs of a passive mind wholly incapable of moral reasoning.
True Christians, on the other hand, exercise their minds to discern good from evil, truth from lies and test everything they see through the use of moral reasoning.
Try that line on the judge where DNA is being presented as evidence in a murder or paternity trail, and let us know their response.

Yet, God hasn't abandoned us. It is man who turns away from God. God allows us to stray so He can draw us near Him.

Although, there is the Shroud of Turin which many believe depicts Jesus:
Assuming a god exists, it has chosen to remain invisible. Just how does it better serve this god's agenda to have a world in which he doesn't manifest himself in reality? A world in which an existent god which doesn't manifest itself in reality is indistinguishable from a non-existent god?
Furthermore, why would a god set up a system in which our salvation is dependent upon believing something to exist on insufficient evidence?
