Let’s say Thomas missed Jesus by a couple hours, was unable to touch the wounds and then was somehow whisked off to today. What would your advice be to him?

Listen to the other Apostles. Thomas would be in the same boat as the rest of us. He had the advantage however of actually living with Jesus. So he had that and he knew of the predictions of the coming Messiah foretold in the writings of Judaism. If a little reflection on these three sources didn’t convert him perhaps St. Paul would have been able to talk some sense into him. And if that didn’t work I suppose he would have died a faithful Jew.

Join the Catholic Church, talk to the Pope.

Well, not every apostle achieved sainthood…, but if things were other than they are they’d be different.
