Not totally convinced that this is the right place...

Love it!

I've never heard of her either, but I'm not ashamed to admit that. I'll probably forget her name now, but I'll remember the joke

On the other hand:
“He - and if there is a God, I am convinced he is a he, because no woman could or would ever fuck things up this badly.”
― George Carlin

I heard that piece in the car yesterday. I don't think there is any reason why I should have heard of her and the name didn't register anyway but I did remember the joke

bags here's one

Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"

He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"

He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"

Northern Conservative†Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.

Baubles That joke has more than a grain of truth in it. It sounds like what I have heard about the divisions in the Presbyterian church in Scotland with their free and wee and wee wee divisions. It says a lot that is not good about the attitudes of some of these groups

From what I remember the guy below, upset the applecart when in the late 1980s, as an elder of the Presbyterian Church he attended the funerals of a couple of fellow judges who were Roman Catholics. He was as it were, hauled before his other church elders and told never to do it again, which he refused to agree to. When you think about it it's dreadful.

Yes I remember that well - tells you everything you need to know about that particular sect

Good joke!

Someone said on the radio this morning that Lucy is young enough to become the first woman Archbishop of Canterbury.

Yes I remember that too Nellie . I also knew one or two people from that particular branch of the christian church who held some distinctly unchristian views.

Before I downsized after early retirement when I was diagnosed with Parkinsons. I was a member of an Ecumenical church, made up of Anglicans, Methodists, United Reform & Baptists. The Catholics pulled out before the sharing agreement had been signed by all.

THis church worked tirelessly to bridge differences & resolve conflicts as do other non mainstream churches today
