Last week on Thomas in the Bible, Jesus feeds the multitudes more bread and fish than they can eat, and he leaves them before they can make him king. His disciples in turn leave Jesus, who later follows by walking on water. When the great multitudes catch up to them and ask why he left, he verily, verily says unto them that he did so because they only wanted him for his meat, not because he's the son of God. They doubt that, but don't kill him, though, as he hadn't performed quite enough miracles for that yet. As they are

hungry and don't want to eat them, they leave him alone with his 12 disciples. Spoiler alert,

one of them is a devil with a yon count of two. Hello, thanks Kevin for that intro, much appreciated,

and it helps me remember what in the world happened last week,

because I go into some sort of, like, I don't know, just PTSD sort of just rejecting whatever I read in the

previous week, just memory shut down, some trauma survivor that's just like,

no, I don't, what? Half my head's missing. It's like, what? Nothing's wrong. I'm fine. I'm fine.

No. It's, that's all exaggeration, of course. So, we're on John 8 through 10.

Pleased to have you with me. I understand some people listen to this show, so I don't know what you're

thinking, but I guess if you insist, then I'll do a show. I don't know. I don't know. I'm still in

disbelief. I don't think I'll ever believe. I see all the numbers, and I don't think I'll ever

believe that people actually listen to this show.

I still think it's a bunch of people who just, like, click to download it, but then they don't even hear any of it.

Even Kevin, who did the intro, like, I still, I think he thought, oh, I should do an intro,

and then Googled what happened, and then made up the yon count.

I mean, I know. It's a little conspiracy theory-esque, I understand. But I'm pretty convinced.

I don't know. There's a deep conspiracy of people pretending to listen to this garbage,

because I don't know who would. It's the Bible. It's the worst.

All right. So I'll talk to myself, since no one's, there's no chance anyone's listening. John 8. Jesus went under the Mount of Olives. Hmm. You know, that's where I would go, I think, if I were, if I were around at that time and I was like, boy, stuff is miserable here. It's, it's dry. It's sandy. I don't know.

That's, it is in the movies anyway. Deserty and brutal and everyone's pretty uneducated and, you know, techno, technology. But if I heard there's a mount of olives, said, I'll check that out. Take a look, I guess.

It's not the worst thing ever. I actually really like olives. They're very good. So, you know,

I'm just, look, I'm Mr. Brightside. I'm trying to be cheerful about what I just, what I'm reading.
