JM: You caught it. I had originally written Socrates and Siddhartha and then added Jesus. I was changed the "Both" to "All" but decided that it sounded more Zen or even more trinity-like or dialectical not doing so, three always makes one and then two and three again and then back. (The one thing drummed into my brain from a long three months reading Hegel's Logic.) After I posted I decided that people would just think it was my usual blindness and wouldn't notice so I am shocked that somebody noticed. Ce la.
