Thomas L. Friedman Quote
When American astronaut Neil Armstrong, a devout Christian, visited Israel after his trip to the moon, he was taken on a tour of the Old City of Jerusalem by Israeli archaeologist Meir Ben-Dov. When they got to the Hulda Gate, which is at the top of the stairs leading to the Temple Mount, Armstrong asked Ben-Dov whether Jesus had stepped anywhere around there. I told him, ‘Look, Jesus was a Jew,’ recalled Ben-Dov. These are the steps that lead to the Temple, so he must have walked here many times. Armstrong then asked if these were the original steps, and Ben-Dov confirmed that they were. So Jesus stepped right here? asked Armstrong again. That’s right, answered Ben-Dov. I have to tell you, Armstrong said to the Israeli archaeologist, I am more excited stepping on these stones than I was stepping on the moon.
