I must admit, Thomas is my favorite amongst Jesus' disciples.
He asked for evidence when things contrary to his lifelong perception of the world were contradicted.
To put a knock on him for so doing is unreasonable. If the resurrection story really happened as told in the Most Recent Translation of the Bible We Have, he was completely within his intellectual rights to do so.
After all, if the resurrection was true, then it should have survived any and all attempts at skepticism.
