I thought that people who have the name of Jesus pronounced it so differently that most people wouldn't recognize how it was spelled.

...his superiors were worried that patients told "Jesus will be coming soon ," might get the wrong idea.

If they pronounce it right, there's no confusion.

[MadIvan]

OK, that is really funny. :)

Isn't that name, for mortals, usually pronounced with a soft J??

If not I can understand the concern...an elderly patient might just have a heart attack and meet the real Jesus!!!

Jesus is coming soon. After Mohammed cleans your bedpan.

[saganite]

Sure, right after Mohamed changes his name. That way there won't be any Confucian.

A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables, and when he picked up a CD player to place in his sack, a strange, disembodied voice echoed from the dark saying, "Jesus is watching you."


He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight out, and froze. When he heard nothing more after a bit, he shook his head, promised himself a vacation after the next big score, then clicked the light on and began searching for more valuables.


Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard, "Jesus is watching you." Freaked out, he shone his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot.


"Did you say that?" he hissed at the parrot.


"Yep," the parrot confessed, then squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you."


The burglar relaxed. "Warn me, huh? Who in the world do you think you are?"


"I'm Moses," replied the bird.


"Moses?" the burglar laughed. "What kind of people would name a bird Moses?"


"The kind of people that would name a Rottweiler 'Jesus'."

This is silly, just call him "hey suse"

Jesus, who will now use his middle name Manuel, said he didn't have a problem with the change.

And that should just about be the end of it.

[Darnright]

I believe you will appreciate this thread.

[bondjamesbond]

Maybe I am dense, but why would people associate "Jesus is coming soon" with their own individual death?

[G Larry]

When have hospital staff ever referred to a co-worker by name, when speaking to a patient?
This is pure B.S.!

It's always been "The nurse will be right with you".

[TEXASPROUD]

Jesus is coming, everybody look busy!

[reagan_fanatic]

According to Jesus, an auxiliary nurse at Huddinge hospital, his superiors were worried that patients told "Jesus will be coming soon ," might get the wrong idea.

Now that's funny!

What Would Manuel Do? Millions of bumperstickers will have to be recalled.

Is there no Swedish translation for "The nurse will be here soon?"
