Mark and the resurrection

The gospel of Mark finishes without the resurrection of Jesus. So some people (such as Bishop Shelby Spong) argue that Mark did not believe in Jesus' resurrection. This claim is contradicted by other passages in Mark. Jesus predicts his death, in <bible>Mark 8:31</bible>,
Jesus also predicts his death in <bible>Mark 10:33-34</bible>
Similarly the resurrection itself is talked about in <bible>Mark 9:9</bible>:
