The four great religous truths |
|
*During these tumultuous times, people of all faiths should remember the Four Great Religious Truths:* *1. Muslims do not recognize Jews as God's chosen people.* *2. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah.* *3. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian world.* *4. Baptists do not recognize each other at Hooters or the Liquor Store.* :rofl:

Tom Lehrer's song
Oh, the white folks hate the black folks And the black folks hate the white folks To hate all but the right folks Is an old established rule
But during National Brotherhood Week National Brotherhood Week Lena Horne and Sheriff Clark Are dancing cheek to cheek It's fun to eulogize The people you despise As long as you don't let 'em in your school
Oh, the poor folks hate the rich folks And the rich folks hate the poor folks All of my folks hate all of your folks It's American as apple pie
But during National Brotherhood Week National Brotherhood Week New Yorkers love the Puerto Ricans 'Cause it's very chic Step up and shake the hand Of someone you can't stand You can tolerate him if you try
Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics And the Catholics hate the Protestants And the Hindus hate the Moslems And everybody hates the Jews
But during National Brotherhood Week National Brotherhood Week It's National Everyone-Smile-At- One-Another-hood Week Be nice to people who Are inferior to you It's only for a week, so have no fear Be grateful that it doesn't last all year!

I remember when we moved out of Oklahoma City to a small farming community when I was 5. My Dad's family was from the south and were all Baptist, so that's where we went to church, but my Mom was from PA and she was originally Methodist.
So we had joined the local Baptist church and been members for a couple months.Mom stopped in at the local liquor store for a couple bottles of wine and was coming out of the store when she met one of the local church ladies who was coming out of the fabric store next door. The church lady says "Hi Nora, what kind of recipe are you going to cook with that wine?". Without blinking, Mom says "I'm not going to cook with it, I'm going to drink it."
The church lady gives mom a disgusted look and mom says "well, I'm not driving all the way to Stroud to buy it like everybody else does." Church lady's mouth just turned to a straight line and she moved right along.
:rofl:

There's a church near me that is currently listing their 2 religious truths:
"1. There IS a God. 2. You're not him."
But I like yours better!

11. "Truth" and "religion" don't belong in the same sentence together... |
|
"Religious Truths" is an oxymoron, at best...
This message was brought to you by the Unrepentant Atheist Society...
