Excellent, really excellent, at least given the premise, itself kind of funny, that a liberal and a member of the RR would be anywhere near the same altitude as Barth. But, again, given that a truly super joke.
Now, can we bring back all the jokes about EUCSA Lite . . .they might be timely.
I was waiting at the train station this morning, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off as a train approached. So I ran over and said "Stop! Don't do it!" He said "Why shouldn't I?". 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 you Christian or Buddhist?" He said, "Christian." I said, "Me too! …Are you Catholic or Protestant?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me too! …Are you Episcopalian or Baptist?" He said, "Baptist!" I said, "Wow! Me too!…Are you Baptist church of God or Baptist church of the Lord?" He said, "Baptist church of God!" I said, "Me too! Are you 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.
michael, the joke is taken from an old emo phillips routine, believe it or not.
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 you christian or buddhist?" He said, "Christian." I said, "Me too! Are you catholic or protestant?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me too! Are you episcopalian or baptist?" He said, "Baptist!" I said,"Wow! Me too! Are you baptist church of god or baptist church of the lord?" He said, "Baptist church of god!" I said, "Me too! Are you 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. -- Emo Phillips

ReplyDeleteHilarious!
ReplyDeleteFunny, I'm a big fan of Kierkegaard, but I have yet to read any of Barth's stuff.

Kim and Michael,
ReplyDeleteBoth hilarious jokes! While the former is pure pleasure, the latter is also sobering and educational. Thanks for these!
