A "Risen" Jesus Without a Body Is a Domesticated, Non-Revolutionary Jesus

"We could cope-- the world could cope-- with a Jesus who ultimately remains a wonderful idea inside his disciples' minds and hearts. The world cannot cope with a Jesus who comes out of the tomb, who inaugurates God's new creation right in the middle of the old one."

--N.T. Wright, Surprised By Hope: Rethinking Heaven, the Resurrection, and the Mission of the Church
