Funny




Ok now! Nothing disrespectful intended (by me anyways). And Hey! I bet Jesus laughs! I think Jesus would think this is a very funny and clever cup. In fact when I showed this picture to a Menonite friend, this morning he looked concerned.

I said," I bet Jesus would laugh!", and tried to ease the tension a little by saying "I don't think he would "titter", either. "I think he would have a great big belly laugh." Like a, " HO HO HO !"sort of a Santa Claus type laugh, but this didn't occur to me til now, so I didn't say it to him. Besides, once I mention Santa there goes a whole nother ball of yarn, that we could debate and question and argue about.

I know that the way I remember it, the shortest sentence in the bible was supposedly, "Jesus wept." Maybe that's in the New Testament. ( What about," I AM"? ) Well, either way, does it ever say Jesus laughed? Or did Jesus shave? I don't think saving and shaving are mutually exclusive.
Maybe creation and parts of evolution aren't either. But then people would have fewer things to argue about, to be right or wrong about, and we might just have to love.
We could use the word adaptation to replace the evolve word. Couldn't God create life that changes to better suit it's growing or expanding environment? And to suit the shrinking and devolving world.
I guess when you put in hot liquids the beard comes off the mug. This was my favourite thing at urban outfitters.
