Did Jesus really rise from the dead?

[The Spectator] April 26, 2006--Easter is the most important feast in the Christian calendar. 'If Christ be not risen,' wrote St Paul, 'then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.' The Spectator approached politicians, churchmen, media folk and entertainers - and members of its own staff - and asked them a simple question: 'Do you believe that Jesus physically rose from the dead?' Some did not answer the question: Tony Blair, Ruth Kelly, Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Sir Menzies Campbell. Those who did reply gave some surprising answers. The results of our inquiry reveal a remarkable mix of faith, doubt and evasion.
