We all must agree with St. Paul, the last apostle and first to publish that without the witness of the resurrection, all the moral teachings are folly. Kaspar would agree. Bishops are heirs to the apostles not by some unbroken line of succesion but because their main duty is to proclaim the resurrection of Jesus and of ourselves (the second promise is as important). Those who seem to deny the resurrection are merely affirming that it is not the zombie apocolypse, it happens on another plane of existence. Jesus did not walk the streets of Jerusalem in a glorified body all day, although he did appear to people in the streets, especially on the road to Emmaus, legend having that be to his brother James, the first pastor of the community in Jerusalem and the first pastor martyred for his witness.
