Zechariah

 In Luke 1:5-25, we see Zechariah doubting the message the angel, the Lord sent.  I always felt this was unfair because Mary doubts also, "How can this be, since I am a virgin?"  Luke 1: 26-38.

I've reconsidered.  Mary is very young.  She's just a girl, after all.  Zechariah is a grown man.  More than that, he's a priest.  He should have known scripture.  

Therein, lies the difference.
