You're splitting hairs to no purpose. If hundreds of thousands could witness the amazing events the first generation of Israelites did and still dance around a golden idol, or for that matter if thousands could witness the miracles Jesus did and still end up choosing Barabbas over Him, that proves that seeing means absolutely nothing. It's the faith that lives on after the initial seeing that matters. Thomas needed to see in order to have faith. We are to learn from that incident (which God orchestrated in order to teach us this lesson), that we are in no worse position than any of the disciples were, because physical seeing has nothing to do with how anybody gets saved.
Anyway, we DO see, we see by the eyes of faith, the only ones that count.
OK, I know I'm not going to change your mind nor you mine, so I won't say any more.
