'Indy Timeline' of Upcoming Events A Saturday Interview with Pontius Pilate...
Interview by reporter from JerusalemChristian.comYesterday...
Jesus: "Everyone on the side of truth listens to me."
Pilate: "What is truth?"
JerusalemChristian.com: Governor Pilate, thank you for agreeing to talk with us this morning. We understand the difficult position you were in yesterday.

JerusalemChristian.com: I'm sorry Sir, I'm not following.
Pilate: Yesterday. Remember. There he was in chains, yet I was the one intimidated. By the crowd, to be sure. But much more intimidated by his apparent authority.

Pilate: That's the one. What I should have said was, 'I'll tell you what is truth. What prevails is truth. It's what works'.
JC: Pragmatism, Sir?
Pilate: Exactly. Surviving ideologies become truth because they survive the test of time. After all, isn't...
