About a century or two ago, the Pope decided that all the Jews had to
 leave Rome.  Naturally there was a big uproar from the Jewish
 community.  So the Pope made a deal.  He would have a religious debate
 with a member of the Jewish community. If the Jew won, the Jews could
 stay.  If the Pope won, the Jews would leave.
  
  The Jews realized that they had no choice.  So they picked a middle
 aged man named Moishe to represent them.  Moishe asked for one
 addition to the debate.  To make it more interesting, neither side would
 be allowed to talk.  The Pope agreed.
  
  The day of the great debate came.  Moishe and the Pope sat opposite
 each other for a full minute before the Pope raised his hand and
 showed three fingers.  Moishe looked back at him and raised one
 finger.  The Pope waved his fingers in a circle around his head.  Moishe
 pointed to the ground where he sat.  The Pope pulled out a wafer and a
 glass of wine.  Moishe pulled out an apple.  The Pope stood up and said,
 "I give up. This man is too good. The Jews can stay."
        
  An hour later, the cardinals were all around the Pope asking him what
 had happened.  The Pope said, "First I held up three fingers to
 represent the Trinity.  He responded by holding up one finger to
 remind me that there was still one God common to both our religions.
 Then I waved my finger around me to show him that God was all around us.
 He responded by pointing to the ground and showing that God was also
 right here with us.  I pulled out the wine and wafer to show that God
 absolves us from our sins.  He pulled out an apple to remind me of
 original sin.  He had an answer for everything.  What could I do?"
  
  Meanwhile, the Jewish community had crowded around Moishe. "What
 happened?" they asked. "Well," said Moishe, "First he said to me that
 the Jews had three days to get out of here.  I told him that not one
 of us was leaving.  Then he told me that this whole city would be cleared
 of Jews.  I let him know that we were staying right here."
  
  "Yes, yes,.. and then???" asked the crowd.
  
  "I don't know," said Moishe, "He took out his lunch, and I took out mine."
