April 15, 2001 - HAPPY EASTER!

  Thought of the Day

  "What is most peculiar about Easter is that although His followers had heard Him say He would break the bonds of death, when He actually did, no one believed it. They had to be convinced beyond all shadow of a doubt. Of all the skeptics in the history of the world, none ever equalled the Apostles and the disciples and the holy women. Voltaire and the like were credulous babes compared to them in skepticism. Contemporary attempts to explain away the belief in the Resurrection psychologically fail to take this doubt into account."
   -- Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
