Between moments of dispensing wisdom, it seems that historical
religious leaders had also learned software programming. One day, a
great contest was held to test their skills. After days and days of
fierce competition, only two leaders remained for the last day's
event: Jesus and Mohammed.
The judge described the software application required for the final
test, and gave the signal to start writing code. The two contestants
feverishly typed away on their keyboards. Routines, classes, applets
and applications flew by on their screens at incredible speeds.
Windows, dialogs, and other intricate graphics began forming on
their monitors. The clock showed that the contest would soon be
finished.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightening flashed and the power went out. After
a moment, it came back on-just in time for the clock to announce
that the last competition was over. The judge asked the two
contestants to reveal their finished software. Mohammed angrily said
that he'd lost it all in the power outage. The judge turned to the
other competitor. Jesus smiled, clicked a mouse, and a dazzling
application appeared on his screen.
After just a few moments, the judge was clearly impressed and
declared Jesus the victor. When asked why the decision was made, the
judge pointed out the unique characteristic that set the winner
apart from all the other leaders: Jesus saves.
