Another joke: In the 16th century, the Pope is talked into expelling the Jews of Rome, but their appeals move him, and he says that if they can win a public theological debate, he will relent. Unfortunately, their wisest sage doesn't speak Italian or Latin, and so the debate is conducted in sign language. The Pope begins by pointing towards the sky; the sage points emphatically to the Earth. The Pope, shaken, takes out an apple. Even more quickly, the sage takes out a matzo. The Pope, by this time sweating, raises one finger into the air, whereupon the sage decisively raises three fingers. The Pope, shaken, admits defeat, and allows them to stay....Back at the Vatican, his cardinals ask what happened. He says: "First, I said that some people say the Earth revolves around the sun, but he said no, the sun, she'sa revolve around the Earth! Then, I say that some claim the Earth is-a round like an apple, but he says no, she'sa not, she'sa flat like a cracker. Then I said that some say there is only one God, and he says no, it'sa Trinity, three persons in One. Well, what can I say, he was a- right, so I had to let them stay"....Back in the ghetto, people crowded around the sage to get the story:"First he says,'you're leaving', so I said,'no, we stay here!'. Then he takes out his lunch, so I take out my lunch too. Finally, he says, 'this to you", so I said 'this to you THREE TIMES'"......
