  In the April 1 2003 WT,its says that Judas wasn't present at the Last Supper quoting John 13??? or whatever about Jesus giving Judas a morsel, but if U read Luke 20 v20,which comes immediately after mention of Last Supper,Jesus says`there is the hand of a traitor with mine on the table'.

  According 2 my jw neighbour who gave me some more magazines,Judas couldn't have been at last supper because would Jesus have made a covenant with Judas?

  Well, that would make for a zippy little heavenly government, wouldn't it? I can hear those Board meetings now:

  Jesus: One dissenting vote? AGAIN? Judas, I know that's you.

  Judas: What? What'd I do? These are secret ballots -- maybe it's John.

  Jesus: It can't be John.

  Judas: Oh, that's right, take his side. He always was Teacher's Pet.

  Jesus: Look, Judas, I still have the power to read minds and I don't like what I'm reading right now from you!

  Judas: Well, too bad -- you made me immortal and there isn't anything you can do about it. Nyah, nyah, nyah!

  Jehovah: WHAT'S GOING ON HERE? CAN'T YOU SPIRITS KEEP IT DOWN? I'M TRYING TO CONCENTRATE ON MY NEXT UNIVERSE AND I CAN'T HEAR MYSELF THINK WITH ALL THE ARGUING.

  Jesus: Sorry, Dad. [Aside to Judas: Now see what you did.]

  Judas: Me? He's YOUR dad and this is YOUR Kingdom.
