To the Cross

When the Darwin sign with a fish that was growing legs came out I thought it was quite humorous.  This 'evolved' sign to me beats the original hands down! Hope my Darwinist Friends are not too offended! LOL

After that he appeared to more than 500 of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. Then he
