Reminds me of a story where it turned out that the entire Passover crowd where Pontius Pilate asks who should be pardoned are time travellers that have been told to do what everyone else does.

My god. Google is amazing https://i.imgur.com/XRknZWf.png "Let's Go to Golgotha!"

There's a Russian spoof of "Terminator" which has Arnold going back to kill Judas. With the iconic lever-action shotgun (not consistent, I know). But Christ keeps bringing him back to life, to satisfy his father's will.

Judas is actually the most important player in the story, and Jesus might have put him up to it (he was his favourite, after all).

One of my classmates in an IT course was named Aragorn. I thought about asking him whether his parents chose the name but decided I didn’t want to know.

You can't think of a single person besides his parents who would have named him?

I think about JT from time to time (no pun intended). It looks like things are starting to go the way he described, but about a 10 year time shift difference. Thankfully no CJD outbreaks but with its latency who knows.

Actually, prion diseases are still a worry. Deer up around here are infected, and it's a big hunting area (Utah/Colorado), eating a deer w/ prions, I think can cause CJD.... but IIRC there's a long incubation period (years), and no cure. So you're just fucked.

God help us if that's secretly gonna start killing a lot of people. I cringe everytime my wife's family offers venison for dinner....
