Then in parenthesis it says: "When you stayed at a hotel in Jesus' day, the Gideons hadn't gotten there first." Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The Gideons are a fraternal organization that distributes free Bibles. In a great many hotels in America (and other places, too) you will find that every room has a Gideons Bible in the desk drawer or a dresser drawer. So, yes, it's a joke. |
