Over half of Britons believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead, according to new research published today by Theos, a British theological think tank.

The publication of the research coincides with the launch of The Passion (pictured), the major new drama for Easter on the main BBC channel which begins this Sunday. Theos says the series will inevitably raise questions as to whether he really did rise from the dead. They say that their survey suggests that, for the majority of the population, this question has already been answered. the rest image
