76. The "Burma Shave" tag line after "Jesus Saves" should have been

enough of a clue but I decided to leave nothing to doubt. :-)

Actually, what I said was just historical fact. What the meaning of "Jesus Saves" is can be (and is) disputed but no one could argue that many people have not found "saving grace" through Christianity. Similar spiritual experiences occur in other faiths as well, of course.

Throughout history, the Christian faith has won some and lost some but continues to campaign for Jesus, who declared himself over 2000 years ago. You don't get much in the way of nuance from my imitation"Burma Shave" doggerel but it's the bare bones of Christian history.
