The Monday Funnies

We haven't had many jokes here in awhile, lame or otherwise. So here's a few, at the expense of religion, organized and otherwise. Cartoon by Dave Walker, as usual. Enjoy your Monday...

Little Johnny was at Sunday school, when the teacher asked, “Why do we have to be quiet in church?”

“Because people are sleeping,” answered little Johnny.

To which little Billy quipped, “Oh, I get it. They must be bored again Christians!”

A young woman brings home her fiance to meet her parents. After dinner, her mother tells her father to find out about the young man. The father invites the fiance to his study for a drink. “So what are your plans?” the father asks the young man.

“I am a Torah scholar,” he replies.

“A Torah scholar. Hmmm,” the father says. “Admirable, but what will you do to provide a nice house for my daughter to live in, as she's accustomed to?”

“I will study,” the young man replies, “and God will provide for us.”

“And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring, such as she deserves?” asks the father.

“I will concentrate on my studies,” the young man replies, “God will provide for us.”

“And children?” asks the father. “How will you support children?”

“Don't worry, sir, God will provide,” replies the fiancĂ©.

The conversation proceeds like this, and each time the father questions, the young idealist insists that God will provide.

Later, the mother asks, “How did it go, Honey?”

The father answers, “He has no job and no plans, but the good news is he thinks I'm God.”

Our church assigns people to be greeters at church before worship.

According to my mother, this practice is known as “Howdy Duty.”

Chain of command leaves out two of the most important groups in the church the Organist and the Choir. Never underestimate the power of the musicians!
