Three renowned scientists\u2014Papaia, Banani, Ravioli\u2014and their assistant Igor work at the NASAL observatory.
Ravioli accidentally bought a book that turns out to be very interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are at the airport, where the scientists are talking about Ravioli’s book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Banani and Ravioli take advantage of the wait to continue their discussion about the book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Banani: And the fifth fact? What\u2019s it about?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: James, the brother of Jesus, converts after his death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Banani: Why didn\u2019t he believe in him before?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: “Not only didn\u2019t he believe, but he also thought he was ‘out of his mind.’
In Mark 3, we read that Jesus’ family thought he was ‘out of his mind.’
In Mark 6, his relatives were scandalized by him.
In John 7, it\u2019s confirmed that his brothers didn\u2019t believe in him.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Banani: So, he was skeptical! But then he converts after his death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: In Galatians 1 and Acts 15, we find James as the leader of the church in Jerusalem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Igor: \u201cSpeaking of skepticism, when Papaia said we would arrive on time for the conference, I was a bit skeptical, but now I\u2019m 100% sure we won\u2019t make it\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026actually, given how things are going, I doubt we\u2019ll even manage to make it home\u2026 ever!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026You see\u2026 with Papaia, you keep lowering your expectations. From “we’ll make it,” you quickly go to “I hope we survive.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
