Three renowned scientists—Papaia, Banani, Ravioli—and their assistant Igor work at the NASAL observatory.
Ravioli accidentally bought a book, which turns out to be very interesting.
They are discussing Ravioli’s book.
Banani: Ok! I think we’ve put a lot of “meat on the fire.” For example, I’ve always heard about this “Messiah,” but I’ve never really understood who he is.
Ravioli: According to the Jews of the first century, the Messiah was a special man sent by God, who would free Israel from its enemies.
Banani: And why didn’t they believe that Jesus could be the Messiah?
Ravioli: Because Jesus was humble, while the Jews expected the Messiah to be a powerful king who would free them from the domination of the Roman Empire.
Banani: I see. So Jesus was a spiritual Messiah, not a military one.
Ravioli: Exactly, according to Christians, Jesus freed them, but not from a dominating army, rather from the sin that every human being is inevitably enslaved to.
Banani: But this didn’t sound good to the ears of the Jewish religious leaders, who ended up persecuting Christians.
Ravioli: That’s why the disciples had nothing to gain from preaching the resurrection of Jesus. First, because they themselves were initially orthodox Jews, so this went against all their principles. Second, because becoming Christian at that time was very dangerous.
Banani: In any case, you said that, like the other four, this second fact is supported by abundant evidence. So, we can say that even most critics are certain that the disciples believed they had encountered Jesus risen from the dead.
Ravioli: Yes, there’s a lot of evidence the author shows us. And most critics think this is true, and that the disciples weren’t lying.
Igor: “Banani was dragged for half the neighborhood by a taxi, caught by his suspenders.
🤣🤣🤣
…But now, as if nothing happened, he’s talking with Ravioli about the book.
🤣🤣🤣
…Apparently, for Banani, these are things that happen every day.
🤣🤣🤣
…Like a morning routine.
🤣🤣🤣
…Getting out of bed, brushing your teeth, and being dragged by a taxi along the asphalt,
🤣🤣🤣
…’body surfing’ style but without the surfboard.
🤣🤣🤣
…In any case, apparently, his brain hit the reset button.”
