I'm not a Christian, but the believers should realize that Christ would not have ascended with his mortal body.
Jesus' Body post-Resurrection is glorified. It obviously isn't governed by the same natural laws as ours are. However, the tomb was and still is empty.
Why not? Was there a problem with the transporter system?
Paging Scotty, paging Scotty...
Actually, I always thought that Jesus and Enoch and Elijah were merely taken away and then zapped outside the space-time continuum. The "rising into the sky" was merely how the onlookers interpreted the disappearance. God uses "simple" things to explain these things to us who are not rocket scientists...
And why should we realize any such thing??? What do you base that knowledge on???
"I'm not a Christian, but the believers should realize that Christ would not have ascended with his mortal body."
You aren't a Christian, yet you state what believers shouldn't believe?
Aw, come on...that doesn't even make sense...

It does not seem logical, I realize, but we believe, nevertheless, that that is exactly what happened. We also believe that Mary, the mother of Jesus was also taken into heaven with her mortal body. Miracles are usually outside our understanding of scientific principles.
I apologize for the rude comments that you have received from some here, as I do not believe that you were trying to mock our beliefs.
