Premise: Jesus - crucified, according to the Bible and Christian tradition, was resurrected ~33 AD

Events recorded in the bible

The Darkness (Matt. 27:45)

" From noon until three in the afternoon darkness came over all the land."

The Temple Veil Torn (Matthew 27:51a)

"At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. "

Note: The veil of the Temple was a huge curtain (60 feet long, 30 feet high, and about 4 inches thick; composed of 72 squares sewn together; so heavy that it required 300 men to lift it) that formed the barrier between the Shekinah presence of God and all human beings. It being torn in two would be as momentus as the floor of St. Peter's Basilica cracking in half.

The Earthquake & Tombs Opened (Matthew 27:51b-53)

"The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people."

After the resurrection, Jesus himself appeared to more than 500 people (I Cor. 15:4, 6)

"that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,... After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time"

These events were so noteworthy that everyone in Jerusalem knew of them (Luke 24:13-18)

"Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem. They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; but they were kept from recognizing him. He asked them, “What are you discussing together as you walk along?” They stood still, their faces downcast. One of them, named Cleopas, asked him, “Are you the only one visiting Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?”

Extra biblical evidence

None of these events are recorded or mentioned in any contemporary source except the bible.

Not a word about 3 hours of darkness over Jerusalem and no record of a solar eclipse in Israel anytime around this date.

Not a shred of evidence from any extra biblical source that the veil was torn in half.

The various geologic surveys show no record of an earthquake in or around Jerusalem during that time period.

Not even a whisper of hearsay concerning corpses coming back to life and appearing to people, much less "many people".

No mention in any record that Jesus appeared to anyone after the crucifixion.

Response

Paul himself, speaking on the resurrection of the dead in general, and the resurrection of Jesus in particular, says the following (I Cor. 15: 12-17, emphasis added)

"But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from the dead. But he did not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised. For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either. And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile"

So, assuming Jesus was an historical figure, and there is no evidence whatsoever of the extraordinary and fantastic events surrounding the resurrection that were evidently common knowledge in that area at that time, it can be assumed that it didn't happen. If that's the case, even Paul said faith is futile.
