Chapter 24

Ravi had a field day of it when he found out.

"So, Swami Jesus, will you go on the hajj this year?" he said, bringing the palms of his hands together in front of his face in a reverent namaskar. "Does Mecca beckon?" He crossed himself. "Or will it be to Rome for your coronation as the next Pope Pius?" He drew in the air a Greek letter, making clear the spelling of his Mockery. "Have you found time yet to get the end of your pecker cut off and become a Jew? At the rate you're going, if you go to temple on Thursday, mosque on Friday, synagogue on Saturday and church on Sunday, you only need to convert to three more religions to be on holiday for the rest of your life."

And other lampoonery of such kind.

 第二十四章

    拉维发现这件事后对我尽情嘲笑了一番。

    “那么，耶稣先知，今年你要去朝觐吗？”他说，一边把双手放在脸面前，行了一个虔诚的合十礼。“麦加在召唤吗？”他画了个十字。“还是到罗马去参加你自己 登上下一任庇护教皇宝座的加冕礼？”他在空中画了一个希腊字母，拼出自己的嘲弄。“你腾出时间做了包皮环割术，成了犹太人了吗？照你这个速度，如果你星期 四去庙宇，星期五去清真寺，星期六去犹太教堂，星期天去教堂，那么你只需要再皈依三个宗教，下半辈子就可以天天放假了。”

    以及诸如此类的其他的冷嘲热讽。
