The boy in a first grade Sunday school class asked: "Say, Pastor, how are the dead raised? Is it like the launch of a moon mission? I don't understand." Would we be reluctant to call the child a "fool"?
The Apostle Paul called the questioner a fool, but then proceeded to give the man an answer. Paul was not an eyewitness to the resurrection. No one who witnessed the events surrounding Christ's death was present to speak from the crowd, so Paul explained it the best he could.
