A persecutor of the church met by the risen Jesus on the road to Damascus; apostle to the nations; finished his course.

So the dessert of the day is shaped like a drop of water, and it wobbles. I once ate at midnight in a Philippian jail, right after an earthquake, while the jailer waited on us. Nobody asked if it wobbled either... Eat it.
