The Oldest Profession

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?"
