Friday Wisdom – At the Church

Posted on 03/04/2022 by Andrew Reynolds

This week was Ash Wednesday and I was down at the church for the noon service, so you get churchy wisdom this week:

I found Jesus – he was hiding behind the couch the whole time.

Atheism is a non-prophet organization.

How do you make holy water? Get some tap water and boil the hell out of it.

You know, even Moses started out as a basket case.

I was just reading a physics book and turns out photons have mass. Wow, I didn’t know they were Catholic.

Planning ahead is good – It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.

God created everything with a purpose. Except maybe mosquitoes.

When Jonah told his family about what happened on his way to Nineveh, his father replied, “Sounds fishy.”

Every day Adam and Eve did a little math. Well they were told to be fruitful and multiply.

Samson was the best musician in the Bible – yeah, he brought the house down.

Never said in a church: “It’s my turn to sit in the front pew.”

The chair of our church council just announced we’re going to start welcoming all denominations: fives, tens, twenties, fifties – all are welcome.

I told my pastor that I’d just had two crowns put on my teeth. She suggested we sign the Dentist’s Hymn, “Crown Him with Many Crowns.”

    Awesome. The denominations one is particularly clever. A pastor, somewhere, needs to use that line for real.

    An excellent selection of good laughs, without offending anybody as far as I could see. ANd furthermore, a motivational speech that should be on the wall of every government department:
    “Planning ahead is good – It wasn’t raining when Noah built the ark.”
