The Feast of St Thomas (July 3)

July 3rd is the feast day for Doubting Thomas, the apostle who didn't believe that Jesus had come back from the dead.

Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe. (John 20:25)

Years later Mary (mother of Jesus) died and, as she was ascending into heaven, she called out to Tommy and dropped her waist belt (girdle) so that he would have proof that he had witnessed the event.

It sounds like a made up story but no - the Catholics have still got the girdle! Here it is, on display, in 2007:

Seriously, how dumb do you have to be to fall for crap like this?

Hundreds of millions of adult human beings living in the 21st century actually believe that 2,000 years ago some Jewish woman took off in front of witnesses and went straight up into space like she had a rocket up her arse!

And then she turned around, took off her girdle, and chucked it back toward Earth where it was picked up by Doubting Thomas who bequeathed it to the church when he died!

People believe this bullshit!

And they think the unbelievers are the silly ones!
