Episode 13: Mysteries and Caffeine.
We are at the airport.
It’s now midnight. Banani has improvised beds with numerous suitcases. Ravioli is using his last coins to buy chocolate from the vending machine. Papaia and Banani are talking about the book.
Papaia: I took a look at Ravioli’s book. It seems that according to the author, Paul is the main witness.
Banani: I’ve read something too. It seems that Paul, in his own words, was a persecutor of Christians. But after encountering what he himself calls the risen Jesus, he converts.
Papaia: Maybe he was lying?
Banani: Why would he have done that?
Papaia: True! He gained nothing from it, but instead was persecuted because of his testimony.
Banani: That means he wasn’t lying about his experience.
Papaia: What can explain what Paul saw?
Banani: A hallucination?
Papaia: We have to consider that Paul was an enemy of Jesus. I don’t think there’s a hallucination so convincing that it could transform his life like this.
Banani: Maybe he was just remorseful for what he had done, and was looking for a way to redeem himself…
Papaia: Yes, but we also have the appearances to other groups of witnesses.
Banani: This remains a mystery.
Igor: The real mystery here is how we’ll manage to get back home!
