Jumpin' Jehova!

Post by Rum » Thu Sep 03, 2015 10:49 am

Was walking down some back streets today with my dogs on the way to the park and two lots of what looked very much like Jehovah's witnesses were about to knock on the front doors of two houses next to each other. Feeling annoyed by the bustards I said so they all could hear me 'There is no god you know. You are barking up the wrong tree'!

They were clearly taken aback and didn't respond other than to look a bit startles as I walked on.

A minute or so later I found myself hoping they weren't double glazing salesmen or some such..

:lol:

I want to see an all in cage fight between mormons, jehova's witnesses, seventh day adventists and the nastier kinds of baptists. Would pay good money!

Head to Bethlehem around Easter time - or xmas - or any of those freaky xtian festivals. You'll see them going at it! :biggrin:

My dad was a policeman in Palestine during the time of the British mandate (which ended when Israel was formed). He used to tell tales of great hilarity about trying to keep priests and nuns apart as they struggled to get their (only true and correct denomination) as near to the holy sepulchre as possible. There were protocols in place but they never seem to have worked. Hitting with fists, crosses and various emblems on the end of poles was common and a near riot took place every time!

I'd love to have seen that.

I think it still takes place, I hear of scuffles between clergy around that location fairly regularly, especially around Easter...

I'll bet it's hard to keep priests and nuns apart at any time.

Except for the lezzers and gays who have their own priorities.

It's funny how they call them "Father" and "Mother Superior" given their reproductive record. Although nuns are best placed to hide a swelling belly.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops. - Stephen J. Gould

Some former monk inadvertently triggered quite some fireworks when he stuck a piece of paper to a door in 1521.
