Hey guys this was taken from Robin Williams on Broadway...

There are strange things in the Bible... Moses went to Pharoah and said, 'let my people go' and Pharoah said 'no way' so moses says 'God help me!' and frogs fell from the sky!!! Who's knows? It could have been God... or maybe it could have been some jews on the other side of the mountain with a catipult full of frogs saying 'NOW!'. Good thing this didn't happen in France because the French would say 'Lunch!'

Also you notice that there are always jewish names in the bible, like moses zerriach adam... then you have Mary and Joe... If you think about it we were a hypenit way from Mary-Jo and Jim-Bob the son of Christ... And think about it... We could be singing :

'Praise to him Jim-Bob
He who gets me that stuff and a job,
Jim-Bob!'

And it says that Jesus was an only child, well thank God! Who would want to be Jerry the brother of Christ?!

Mary: Comon Jerry we're going to the beach

Jerry: Oh great, Jesus is going to walk on water get a bunch of diciples heal everyone and I'm going to sit with a rash on my a** on hot sand great day for me...

lol more robin williams to come!

I loved that performance! My wife couldn't get past her previous conception of him from all his "kiddy fliks" (Flubber, Jumanji, etc), but then again, she never saw any of his early stand-up acts from back in the 70's and 80's (now THERE'S a blast from the past! ).

Since you posted some "religious humor", how about a quick observation before we get back to all that Robin Williams goodness:
You know how the atheists refuse to allow prayer and the Ten Commandments to be in schools or public places or even in The Pledge? Then how come I've never seen one refuse to take off work for a religious holiday?

... he has a point ...

Who? Me or Robin Williams?

Tell you what- I'm an atheist (or maybe just an extreme agnostic ), but if you don't think Atheists should take off religiously based federal holidays, I'll just start my own religion!

There you go- Rae-ism includes the holy months of July (to celebrate the summer) and December (to celebrate the end of the year). Both are holy months- I need to spend July in poolside meditation, and December in deep slumber to spiritually rejuvenate me for the coming year.
Of course, Raeism also entails weekly festivals, to be held from sundown friday to sundown sunday.

Sounds great!

Tell me, if such holidays were available to you, would you just go into work instead?

Like it or not, atheists, as well as members of other religions, have christian holidays forced on them by the majority. It's much easier for everyone to just cope with it, and try to get along as well as we can, in spite of differences.

Let's not get into a debate. The observation was made in jest for the most part. For anyone I offended, I apologize earnestly.

After all, if the government wants to tell my employer that they have to give me the day off (with/without pay), for whatever reason, I'm not going to balk at it.
And if that means the government takes up Raeism and gives me a couple months off a year... You will NOT hear me complain.

I do, however, thank you for your ending comment, "try to get along as well as we can, in spite of differences."
I agree whole heartedly and apologize again for any offense taken by my jest.


P.S. Does Raeism's weekly festivals allow lots of drinking? I can't be involved with any kind of religion that won't let me have the occasional beer.
