Huh?
Where's the evidence for the supernatural?
How does jesus' historical existence prove anything supernatural?
Take witnesses. How do you question the witnesses of the resurrection?
In any, say, criminal case police interview all witnesses to see that their claims are validated if they all saw the same event. How do we do that with the apostles?
Miracles, Near Death Experiences, the experiences of those who see ghosts, the experiences of those who are written about in the Bible and other things. These are not scientific proof. Science is for the physical universe and is a scholarly discipline that requires other types of evidence. If anything science, which has a naturalistic philosophy at it's heart, would try to explain away the experiences of people, and people with the same sort of naturalistic philosophy would be happy with the naturalistic guesses of science.
We cannot interview witnesses to the resurrection to see if their cases are true, we can believe them or not. It is however evidence for the supernatural and for Jesus being whom He said He is.
J Warner Wallace, and ex police cold case investigator wanted to show the gospels were made up and came the conclusion, after studying them, that they showed signs of being genuine witness stories.
Basically it is a matter of faith, but it is not blind faith with no evidence. That is a lie of many atheists and sceptics about the Christian faith.
