Doubting Thomas

A doubting Thomas is someone who won't take what you say on trust. He or she has to see it for themselves before they believe what you're saying. But why a doubting Thomas? Why not a doubting Ian, or a doubting Beyoncé?Thomas was the name of one of Jesus' 12 disciples. According to the story, when Jesus rose from the dead, he appeared to all his disciples... except for Thomas, who was out at the time. When Thomas came back, the disciples told him in great excitement that they had seen Jesus, but Thomas (unsurprisingly) wasn't convinced. He wanted to see for himself, and so he has gone down in history as the epitome of doubt...

A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe." Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!"
John 20:26-28

Magna Carta Sealed on this day.

1215: Magna Carta sealed
Following a revolt by the English nobility against his rule, King John agrees to put his royal seal on the Magna Carta, or Great Charter. The document, essentially a peace treaty between John and his barons, guaranteed the nobles their feudal privileges and promised to maintain the nation's laws. The Magna Carta also called for fair and equal treatment of the nobles in legal cases, a major infringement on the king's traditional authority. Although King John soon revoked the Magna Carta, it is regarded as a groundbreaking political document that helped lay the foundation for modern democratic England.

King John later amended the Magna Carta in Bristol!
