From what I remember from Sunday School (cough, mumble, 40 years ago!) in order to fulfill an Old Testament "prophecy", the Roman soldiers at Jesus's crucifixion "cast lots" and gambled for possession of Jesus's clothes.

My dad's 83 years old, and I love him & Mom dearly, but the worst thing imaginable would be to have some sort of grudge held to the grave over something that really doesn't matter. The best strategy is to change the subject. As Linus Van Pelt said in the famous comic strip, "There are three things I've learned never to discuss in public: politics, religion, and the Great Pumpkin."

Also, Homer Simpson once said "Lisa, if the Bible has taught us nothing else - and it hasn't - it's that girls should stick to girl's sports, like hot oil wrestling, foxy boxing, and such and such."
