    Raver Jesus!

    I don't know why but that reminds me of that old joke:

    Q: why can't you hold a Nativity Play in Nottingham
    A: where are you going to find 3 wise men and a virgin in Nottingham???

    Oh, we're doing jesus jokes now?

    Ok ...

    So Jesus Christ walks into a hotel, throws three nails on the counter and says; "can you put me up for the night?"

    So good!

    People deserve respect. Beliefs do not.

    The belief is what is being ridiculed. NOT the person.

    Any adult who believes in Santa Claus, the tooth fairy, Jesus, Mohammed, the Easter bunny, leprechauns, fairies, reincarnation, life of any sort after death, psychics, angels, astrology, creationism, or a flying spaghetti monster is either delusional or poorly educated. These people deserve pity- not ridicule.

    It's sad to me that you had to make a fake account just to post your opinion without being reported...

    Oh, look at you setting up a new profile just to come in here and bash people. Aren't you a peach.

    Beliefs that do not affect you deserve respect out of the respect of the person believing. And I am sure thst your pity is unnecessary.

    You beat me to it. Cowards hide behind fake accounts.

    Thank you! I like when an atheist will speak up and tell other atheists they're being @sses. I do the same when I see Christians do it.

    I've been wondering that myself... not the thread but the behavior toward the OP. Mentioning you have less friends now because you've moved and that meal planning will help... it deserves insults, mocking and other derogatory comments?

    What happened to us moving on if we don't care for a thread or it simply isn't a topic that interests us? I hear others that are actually posting in this thread type that so often... it really is pretty easy to move on.

    Cheers for a good day OP.... 99.9% of MFP members are AWESOME! The staff is great and find yourself a group of friends and stick with them and you'll go far.

    Yes I agree, meal planning is a great way to go, it helps immensely!:happy:

    Translation: People deserve respect, but I get to mock the hell out of them if they happen to believe in something I disagree with.

    I don't think that word respect means what you think it means.

    People who claim to be atheists but bash religion are actually anti-theists. But most aren't smart enough to know that word.

    Don't people who believe in Jesus assemble in groups once or twice a week? Seems like a good way to meet people. Actually, when I was single I was considering believing in Jesus because not only would I probably be happier, but more women than men go to church so I figured I could find myself a 9 despite being a 6. However, I just couldn't get past the lack of hard evidence to favor one religion or another, so I gave up and just found myself a cute sinner.

    I think Billy Joel had it right..."I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints. The sinners are much more fun..."

    Interestingly enough you forgot about the part where they mentioned Jesus, which is what everyone is responding to. No one is mocking not having friends or meal planning. Just the inappropriateness of bringing religion into a public forum that is not Christian based (that I know of).

    I've used that word when an atheist was bashing religion, but he didn't appreciate that much. Told me I don't know what I'm talking about.

    Yeah, but being realistic, the only reason to start a jesus thread outside of the xtian groups is to cause what's happening here.

    Jesus was a healthier eater ever since he lost the ability to hold M&M's in the palms of his hands the last time he was around.

    I'm Catholic. I could care less what anyone posts about my faith and my religion. There is nothing anyone could possibly post that would offend me.

    How are you not offended by some of the things said about God? For me, it's like hearing those things about my mother or my children. It hurts and it's offensive.

    User opened profile in May and posted this originally in May. I suppose we can thank whoever resurrected this thread today, though.

    not all anti-theists are a-holes either... I'm just sitting back and giggling. I feel no compulsion to ruin this relatively light-hearted banter.

    ok .. so a non-offensive jesus joke ..

    Jesus and Satan have an argument as to who is the better programmer. This goes on for a few hours until they agree to hold a contest with God as the judge.

    They set themselves before their computers and begin. They type furiously for several hours, lines of code streaming up the screen.

    Seconds before the end, a bolt of lightning struck taking out the electricity. Moments later, the power is restored, and God announces that the contest is over. He asks Satan to show what he has come up with.

    Satan is visibly upset, and cries, "I have nothing! I lost it all when the power went out."

    "Very well, then," says God, "let us see if Jesus fared any better."

    Jesus enters a command, and the screen comes to life in vivid display, the voices of an angelic choir pour forth from the speakers.

    Satan is astonished. He stutters, "But how?! I lost everything, yet
    Jesus' program is intact! How did he do it?!"

    God chuckles, "Jesus saves."
