Justin Brandt’s corrupted flerf gospel.

The meme is a reference to the account of Doubting Thomas in the Gospel of John, chapter 20 verses 24-29:

[24] Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came. [25] So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe.”

[26] Eight days later, his disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” [27] Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe.” [28] Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” [29] Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

This means that Justin Brandt is comparing flat earth with the core Christian doctrine of Christ’s Resurrection, and possibly attaching to it a comparable moral weight of salvation or damnation. Leaving this blasphemous implication ambiguously available, as Justin has done, to a normal Christian would be an inconceivable anathema.
