Atlantis ‹the domain of the Stingray›
Our kids are learning Algebra and Calculus, are expected to memorize the periodic table and to read Shakespeare. Their marching-band routines are ever more complicated, and they are supposed to know all the plays in the playbook. But when it comes to church, we say, "Don't bother me with the details."

Quasi modo geniti

John 20:19-31

In the name of the Father and of the + Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Christ is risen! [He is risen indeed, Alleluia!]

Ah, yes, the passage about "doubting Thomas." How we love to pick on this poor man because of what he said, "Unless I see in His hands the imprint of the nails, and put my finger into the place of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe," and also for what Jesus said to him, "Reach here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand and put it into my side; and do not unbelieving, but believing." However, this lesson is not merely about "doubting Thomas," but of all who are numbered among the believers (which includes Thomas).
