Doubting Thomas


“Doubting Thomas” doubting Thomas is a skeptic who refuses to believe without direct personal experience it is a reference to the apostle Thomas, who refused to believe that the resurrected Jesus had appeared to the eleven apostles, until he could see and feel the wounds received by Jesus on the cross. In art the episode “formally called the Incredulity of Thomas” has been frequently depicted since at least the 5th century, with its representation reflecting a range of religious interpretations. The image of doubting Thomas shows the disciples healing Jesus of his wounds. The song Nickel Creek is a song that refers too doubting Thomas in biblical references. They refer to Thomas on a prayer for good sins to come from god in the future. The sculpture of doubting Thomas shows Jesus and Thomas. In the sculpture you see Jesus blessing Thomas almost like a baptism. Doubting Thomas is a cinema classics collection by Will Rogers. The collection is about; a husband makes fun of his wife's dramatically aspirations when she agrees to appear in a local production. When she begins to neglect him, he decides to react by also going on stage.
