My favourite religious joke

[bloodline]

In light of one of Metalman's recent comments, I decided to share one of my favourite jokes:



I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. I immediately ran over and said "Stop! Don't do it!"

"Why shouldn't I?" he said.

I said, "Well, there's so much to live for!"

"Like what?"

"Well ... are you religious or atheist?"

"Religious."

"Me too! Are you Christian or Jewish?"

"Christian."

"Me too! Are you Catholic or Protestant?"

"Protestant."

"Me too! Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?"

"Baptist."

"Wow! Me too! Are you Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord?"

"Baptist Church of God."

"Me too! Are you Original Baptist Church of God, or are you Reformed Baptist Church of God?"

"Reformed Baptist Church of God."

"Me too! Are you Reformed Baptist Church of God, reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of God, reformation of 1915?"

"Reformed Baptist Church of God, reformation of 1915!"



****** WAIT FOR IT *********







To which I said, "Die, heretic scum!" and pushed him off.

In ancient Rome, a Christian was thrown to a lion.

"Oh Lord," prayed the Christian, "Grant in Thy goodness that the lion walking behind me is a good Christian lion." And then, in the silence that followed, the Christian heard the lion praying too:

"Oh Lord," the lion prayed, "We thank Thee for the food which we are about to receive."

Just because it isn't funny, doesn't mean it's not a joke ;-)
