A little bit of prose has been making its way across the Internet. It has travelled the length and breadth of the Facebook world. As of yet, the author has not been definitively identified. Here is what it says:

The greatest man in history, named Jesus, had no servants, yet they called him Master. Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.
