Back in the fifties every kid went to the Catholic school whether they were Catholic or not . The school had a excellent reputation for learning so all children of all denominations attended , St Marys . One day in class , Sister Tereasa the grade six teacher hold up a shiny new silver dollar . She states that anyone who can tell her who was the greatest man that ever lived ,shall receive the coin . Well Tony the Italian boy raises his hand and say ,teacher it was Leonardo Da Vinchee . Sister says sorry Tony but that’s not the answer i was looking for . Dennis the Greek boy says it was Pythagorous , he gave us mathematics ,again Sister Tereasa says sorry thats not the answer . Then Nathan the Jewish boy stands up and says sister it was Jesus Christ he was the greatest man who ever lived . Sister Tereasa says Nathan absolutely correct ! come and get your shinny new silver dollar . At recess Sister Tereasa walks up to Nathan who was sitting down on the school steps . She says to Nathan ,I know you are Jewish Nathan ,why did you answer with Jesus Christ . Well Sister, he says ,we all know that Moses was the greatest man on earth but Business is Business ~ Copey
