A physician, an engineer, and an attorney were discussing who
among them belonged to the oldest of the three professions
represented.
The physician said, "Remember, on the sixth day God took a rib from
Adam and fashioned Eve, making him the first surgeon. Therefore,
medicine is the oldest profession."
The engineer replied, "But, before that, God created the heavens
and earth from chaos and confusion, and thus he was the first
engineer. Therefore, engineering is an older profession than
medicine."
Then, the lawyer spoke up. "Yes," he said, "But who do you think
created all of the chaos and confusion?"
