Re: Some Humor

In case you may not have heard this one before:

I hope that you wont take offense at this little bit of humor but
your mentioning the Rabbis brought it to mind.  But in the world of
religion, it could be almost any of them.  8-)


  So it seems that these four rabbis had a series of theological
  arguments, and three were always in accord against the fourth.
  One day, the odd rabbi out, after the usual "3 to 1, majority
  rules" statement that signified that he had lost again, decided
  to appeal to a higher authority.  "Oh, God!" he cried.  "I know
  in my heart that I am right and they are wrong!  Please give me
  a sign to prove it to them!"

  It was a beautiful, sunny day.  As soon as the rabbi finished
  his prayer, a storm cloud moved across the sky above the four.
  It rumbled once and dissolved.  "A sign from God!  See, I'm
  right, I knew it!"  But the other three disagreed, pointing out
  that stormclouds form on hot days.

  So the rabbi prayed again: "Oh, God, I need a bigger sign to show
  that I am right and they are wrong.  So please, God, a bigger sign!"

  This time four stormclouds appeared, rushed toward each other
  to form one big cloud, and a bolt of lightning slammed into a
  tree on a nearby hill.  "I told you I was right!" cried the rabbi,
  but friends insisted that nothing had happened that could not
   be explained by natural causes.

  The rabbi is getting ready to ask for a *very big* sign, but just
  as he says "Oh God..." the sky turns pitch black, the earth shakes,
  and a deep, booming voice intones, "HEEEEEEEE'S RIIIIIIIGHT!"

  The rabbi puts his hands on his hips, turns to the other three,
  and says, "Well?"

  "So," shrugged one of the other rabbis, "now it's 3 to 2!"

Enjoy!
