I posted this in the Religion/Theology forum. It went over pretty well, so I thought I'd repost it here, for those who (wisely) do not read the R/T forum.
A priest, a rabbi, an imam and a secular humanist were having a theological debate over tea.
"My G-d is the G-d of Abraham," says the rabbi.
"My God is the God of Abraham," says the priest.
"Abraham served Allah," says the imam.
The Secular Humanist replies, "The was no god for Abraham to have."
"How can you disagree with so many learned opinions?" asks the rabbi?
The Secular Humanist answers, "I'm comfortable with three against one."
The clergy confer briefly and then pray to their God to send a sign. Suddenly the room is filled with an inexplicable glow and everyone is overcome with a sense of perfect love. A quiet voice speaking from everywhere and nowhere at the same time says, "I am the God of Abraham." The presence subsides and the four sit for a moment in silence.
Then the Secular Humanist says, "OK, four against one."
