For Tarzan....and a few others

There is a little old lady, who, every morning steps onto her front porch, raises her arms to the sky and shouts,"PRAISE THE LORD!" One day an atheist moves into the house next door. He becomes irritated at the little old lady, so every morning, he steps onto his front porch after her and yells,"THERE IS NO LORD!" Time passes with the two of them carrying on this way every day. Then one morning, in the middle of winter, the little old lady steps onto her front porch and shouts,"PRAISE THE LORD! Please Lord, I have no food and I am starving, provide for me, oh Lord!" The next morning she steps onto her porch and there are two HUGE bags of groceries sitting there. "PRAISE THE LORD!" she cries out. "HE HAS PROVIDED GROCERIES FOR ME!" The atheist neighbor jumps out of the hedges and shouts, "THERE IS NO LORD. I BOUGHT THOSE GROCERIES!!" The little old lady throws her arms into the air and shouts, "PRAISE THE LORD! HE HAS PROVIDED ME WITH GROCERIES AND MADE THE DEVIL PAY FOR THEM!!"

I read that a long time ago on the American Atheist website, under the heading, "You can lead a theist to logic but you can't make her think," It wasn't funny then and it isn't funny now.

I'm sort of surprised that you would post such an anti-Christian joke. I don't believe all Christians are so addicted to their religion that they can't see straight, as this joke implies, and I'm uncomfortable that you think I would find this funny. For future reference, such derogatory humor really isn't for me.

Anti Christian joke? Hmmm...Fundamental Christian's believe it to be a biblical truth.

Perspective is 20/20.
