The Lord was a Catholic, wasn't he?

Three Christians, belonging to three denominations, had an argument about what sect Christ belonged to. The Catholic insisted that Christ was a Catholic, the Orthodox said the Lord was Orthodox, and the Protestant was sure that the Son of Man was a Protestant. When all arguments failed to clinch the issue, they took the matter to a non-Christian for an impartial decision. He happened to be a Jew. His decision was quick and unambiguous: Jesus, he ruled, was a Jew.

Recently, I was trying to share this joke with a young Catholic priest from Kerala. I failed. It went over his head. After hearing me, he commented in all seriousness: "Of course, the Lord was a Catholic, wasn't he?"
