Let us for a moment imagine and take the "Christianity" out of the brothah known as "Jesus" (aside from the fact that was a "jew", not a Christian). Let us for a moment disassociate him from the "holy bible"...he's simply a Kushite brothah, a master teacher, revolutionary, and healer...
Some of those many "miracles" he was performing such as "raising the dead", would have been regarded and accepted as Afrikan Spiritual Science. Performed by others before this "Jesus". But from a Roman (western) perspective, it would have been defined as "magic" and even "Black magic"
It is well known that in Haiti, they brought over the art/science of certain herbs, roots, in accordance with the "heavens" (stars, planetary positions) that will "raise the dead" after 3 days of being "clinically dead" (heart beat is so low it is undetected). Maybe one of dem sistahs at the crucifixion gave the brothah a likkle bit of good ol' "roots"? LOL
I'm sure when the western bible was brought into traditional afrika, di elders dem wouldn't have regarded those events as miraculous, themselves well familiar with similar experiences and stories.
"Magic", sciences, etc must be overstood from an indigenous perspective, not a Biblical one, to fully discern truth from fiction.
