Responding to the post about Jesus' joke on Nathaneal,  Mark Twain, in
Innocents Abroad, said that he finally came to realize there was humor in
the Bible when he went to the Holy Land.  In Acts, St. Luke wrote that
St. Paul went to "the street called Straight."  Twain went there, and
found it to be the crookedest street he'd ever seen.  Then he realized
that St. Luke probably knew it was crooked, too, and had a good laugh at
the joke 1900 years after it was written: he didn't say "the straight
street."
