Enhanced Interrogation Techniques on the way to Emmaus

He permits the prevention of their recognizing him.
He feigns not to know what happened in Jerusalem.
He pretends to be going on farther down the road.

All of this only to reveal himself in the breaking of the bread.

So, just because we may be having a hard time coming to terms with the resurrection, doesn't mean he didn't rise.
Just because we're having a hard time understanding that the scriptures reveal God's masterpiece-of-a-plan for our peace and happiness, doesn't mean they don't make sense.
Just because there are times when God looks to be abandoning us, doesn't mean that all he's waiting for is for us to urge him to "stay with us."

And in the Eucharist, he does just that.
