Today Christendom celebrates an early example of government's unsuccessful mission to murder truth. As I always emphasize, this is something worth commemorating regardless of whether you view the Bible literally or figuratively. Power abhors truth because it is uncompromising and unaccommodating. Truth is not a "team player." Crucify it if you will, but it will rise from the dead and ultimately prevail.
Truth always wins in the end. The transitory and petty rulers of the world -- encapsulated in Pilate's mocking query of "what is truth?" -- always lose.
