Further evidence that the story of the burial, the stone, and later resurrection are made up fantasies.

I'm a Theology/Philosophy major and I can say for a fact that the traditional depictions of the crucifixion are probably wrong. The general method of crucifixion varied quite a bit. Some were nailed to posts, some to trees etc. Some were tied to a tree with rope and had their legs broken. From what I have read almost all were male and were crucified naked to add humiliation to the punishment. Because the exact method of crucifixion varied does not negate the fact that Christ was crucified. FYI you do not need to belive in the divinity of Christ to accept that he was crucified. There were and are a lot of Jews and muslims who hold this view.
