I went with Phineas. Both make Zeal CBN, but you have to have Z-Temple out to protect Joshua. Josh does make all teal enhancements CBN, but it's tough to get initiative to play something other than Zeal.

Phineas can also play Zadok Anoints Solomon and have Phineas' Spear on him.

Phineas, unlike Josh you don't need to set up Z-temple to get protection for him.

If there were no Unholy Writ nor Magic Charms nor Go Into Captivity (I think that's the one), I'd go with Joshua.  But since these capture artifacts are so prevalent, for me it tips the scales in Phinehas' favor.
