Jesus and Allah In a Universe far away we hear a teacher speak to the class, “All right, next, we have Jesus and Allah. Are you prepared?” God classes are never easy, and Jesus enjoyed having someone to work with.
“Yes ma’am we are,” said Allah as he nudged Jesus to start the presentation.
“Well…our idea was to evolve life on a planet much like ours using the common template. When these hominids had advanced sufficiently, we introduced this, like….voice from the clouds that said 'I am god and creator of the planet.' "
Jesus nodded to his friend Allah to continue .“God wrote a complicated story about how he got to be god, and there was enough people who believed it eventually to run the world", noted Allah.

When Gandhi died he went to Hell because he was a Hindu. He recognized two historical figures immediately and went to engage them in conversation. "Buddha, what are you doing here?"
ReplyDelete"Seems the Christians were right about Hell."
"Ben Franklin," Gandhi asked, "are all the great thinkers in Hell?" Satan was standing on a nearby cliff with a fire hydrant filled with pepper spray. They were standing knee deep in pig excrement from Smithfield Farms and though the stench was sickening, Gandhi was heartened that he was going to be able to engage many great minds and said, "It's not so bad here...really."
Buddha and Ben gave each other puzzled glances and Satan announced, " Okay everyone, break is over, back on your heads."
