Atheism and Religion: the Jokes

[Hermit]

Jerry Falwell was strolling along the street one day when he came upon a small boy sitting on the sidewalk with a box. Allowing his curiosity to overcome him, he stopped and peered into the box and asked the boy 'Well now, what do you have here, my son?' The box was full of warm, furry little lumps.
'Hello sir, these are my kittens. They're Christian kittens!'
'Christian kittens! Well bless my soul if that ain't the cutest thing I ever saw!' exclaimed Falwell and went about his business.

The next week Falwell happened to be in the same neighbourhood accompanied by Ann Coulter and he spotted the boy with his box of kittens up ahead.
'Ann, you have got to see this, it's just about the cutest thing I saw in my life!' he said and lead her over to the boy.
'Hello there son, what is it you have in your box there?' he asked the boy, with a broad wink to Coulter.
'Hello sir, there are my atheist kittens!'
Falwell's jaw dropped. 'ATHEIST kittens?!' he asked the boy in horror. 'But....but...but last week you told me they were Christian kittens!'
'Well sure sir, but now they've opened their eyes.'

Mrs. Watkins awoke one spring morning to find that the river had flooded the entire first floor of her house. Looking out of her window, she saw that the water was still rising. Two men passing by on a rowboat shouted up an invitation to row to safety with them.

"No, thank you," Mrs. Watkins replied. "The Lord will provide."

The men shrugged and rowed on. By evening, the water level forced Mrs. Watkins to climb on top of the roof for safety. She was spotted by a man in a motorboat, who offered to pick her up.

"Don't trouble yourself," she told him. "The Lord will provide."

Pretty soon, Mrs. Watkins had to seek refuge atop the chimney. When a Red Cross cutter came by on patrol, she waved it on, shouting, "The Lord will provide."

So the boat left, the water rose, and the old woman drowned. Dripping wet and thoroughly annoyed, she came through the pearly gates and demanded to speak to God. "What happened?" she cried.

"For cryin' out loud, lady," God said. "I sent three boats."

The heretic

I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said, "Stop! Don't do it!" "Why shouldn't I?" he said. I said, "Well, there's so much to live for!" He said, "Like what?" I said, "Well, are you religious or atheist?" He said, "Religious." I said, "Me too! Are your Christian or Buddhist?" He said, "Christian." I said, "Me too! Are you Catholic or Protestant?" He said, "Protestant." I said, Me too! Are your Episcopalian or Baptist? He said, "Baptist!" I said, "Wow! Me too! Are your Baptist Church of God or Baptist Church of the Lord? He said, Baptist Church of God!" I said, "Me too! Are your Original Baptist Church of God or are you Reformed Baptist Church of God?" He said, "Reformed Baptist Church of God!" I said, "Me too! Are you Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1879, or Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915?" He said, "Reformed Baptist Church of God, Reformation of 1915!" I said, "Die, heretic scum!" and pushed him off.

The drunk in the cathedral

A drunk staggered down the main street of the town. Somehow he managed to make it up the stairs to a cathedral and into the entrance, where he crashed from pew to pew, finally making his way to a side aisle and into a confessional.

A priest had observed all this, and figured the fellow needed some help, so he entered his side of the confessional. After the priest sat there in deathly silence, he finally asked, "May I help you, my son?"

"I dunno," came the drunk's voice from behind the partition. "You got any paper on your side?"

Poor blind Herbie

Poor little Herbie. Since his birth, poor blind Herbie had never seen the light of day. One day at bedtime, his mother told him that the next day would be a very special one. If he prayed extra hard to Jesus, he'd be able to see when he woke up the next morning.

Eagerly, Herbie crouched down on his knees beside his bed and put his hands together. For hours, he prayed and prayed to Jesus.

The next morning Herbie's mother came into his room and gently woke him from his sleep.

"Well Herbie, open your eyes and you'll know that Jesus answered your prayers."

Little Herbie slowly opened his eyes, only to cry out, "Mother! Mother! I STILL CAN'T SEE!"

"I know, dear," said his mother. "APRIL FOOL!"

A drunk staggers through the countryside and stumbles on a Christian congregation carrying out a baptism service in the local river. The priest, on seeing the drunk, asks, "Have you come to find Jesus, brother?"
"Shurrrrre havvve," says the drunk.
So the priest grabs the drunk and ducks him under the water, after a few seconds he pulls him up and says, "Have you found Jesus?"
"Huuuurrm NO!" replied the drunk.
So the priest ducked him again.
"Have you found Jesus"?
"Huuuurrm NO!" replied the drunk.
So the priest ducked him again, this time until the drunk was blue in the face.
"For God's sake, have you found Jesus, brother?"
"Huuuurrm NO!" replied the drunk. "Are you sure this is where he fell in?"
