I like how Jesus blessed with the medical ability to cure leprosy, make crippled people walk,cure zombies, some shit about 5 demons and prostitutes decides to never take full advantage of these amazing skills and tells us yes I can come back to life but this time I'm going to be nailed to a lump of carpentry to save you all from your sins and people just think 'Fuck yeah as we care!' - I'd like to think him being alive a curing shit would be more valuable to mankind than him being crow food and if I ever came across someone who could do this stuff I'd bloody well make sure I'd rebel against any authority who decided to execute him/her.

ewwwfound it, john 20,24-28. this is from "the message", one of the most entertaining of the evangelical bibles because the guy's basically transliterated the king james bible into something close to spot the dog.
But Thomas, sometimes called the Twin, one of the Twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples told him, "We saw the Master."
But he said, "Unless I see the nail holes in his hands, put my finger in the nail holes, and stick my hand in his side, I won't believe it."
Eight days later, his disciples were again in the room. This time Thomas was with them. Jesus came through the locked doors, stood among them, and said, "Peace to you."
Then he focused his attention on Thomas. "Take your finger and examine my hands. Take your hand and stick it in my side. Don't be unbelieving. Believe."
Thomas said, "My Master! My God!"
