-Caveat Lector-
The first time I heard that joke was 35 years ago, when a Jewish fraternity
brother told it to me... BTW, according to traditional Christian teachings,
the only person whom Jesus did not die to save was himself. (This seems to
be sort of a variant of the classic "Who Shaves the Barber?" paradox.) After
contemplating that sort of thing for a while, I tend to mutter, as a
nameless Irish monk is supposed to have remarked, "But Jesus Christ was born
before the birth of Jesus Christ!" At which point I put the book down and
put "The Life of Brian" in the VCR...
