The Conquest of the Twelve

Paul says there are 500 1 Corinthians 15 who saw Jesus on the same day, most of whom are still alive to talk to if you doubt me. Do they have this in their favor? First of all, it's not just like James and Peter and John. Remember that there's 120 in the upper room from whom they picked the replacement for Judas and Acts 1. All those people knew Jesus from the baptism to the resurrection. That's really hard to pull off.
