Which one? There are at least three claimed to be Jesus' empty tomb...

How do you explain all those empty tombs? Was Jesus cut into three pieces and buried in three separate tombs? Was he killed, buried, resurrected, killed again, buried again, re-resurrected, killed again, buried again, re-re-resurrected?

Or is it simply that empty tombs are easy to find? That resurrection is not necessary to explain empty tombs? That the presence of empty tombs in and around Jerusalem are not evidence of a resurrection?

The overabundance of empty tombs is a problem for you, not for me.

The real question is, what "logic" explains your fixation on a non-existent Jesus?

Oh, yeah. I forgot that one.

One tomb for God the Father, one for God the Son, and one for God the Holy Ghost!

The Romans must have had a hell of a time trying to nail that ghost to the cross.

You could add another.

Like, for instance:

"Well, that Ghost had no trouble nailing MARY!"

We were just doing "scholarly criticism" concerning the existence of (and explanation for) three empty tombs!

Try your hand at explaining the three empty tombs, why doncha?
