Lighten up

The Mormon Church has it’s funny underwear all in knots over a t-shirt.

From the NY Times:

T-shirts of a Mormon angel with coffee flowing into his trumpet are selling well at a coffee shop in this central Salt Lake Valley city. But they do not have the blessing of religious leaders.

The shirts have upset the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The angel Moroni is a revered figure (Mormons believe he appeared to church founder Joseph Smith); many Mormon temples are topped with a statue of the angel.

Also, Mormons are discouraged from drinking coffee.

The T-shirts show the angel Moroni, a male figure in a robe who is blowing a trumpet. The trumpet is turned up at an angle as coffee is poured in.

Scott Trotter, a church spokesman, said the angel’s image was a trademark of the church.

I didn’t know you could trademark an angel.

Do you have The Knack?

A little religious humor

Posted by Brian on August 3rd, 2006

Check out Lee’s blog for some good religious jokes, we could all use some levity in our lives.

My favorite:

A Mormon Bishop got on an elevator on the 10th floor. As the elevator stopped on the 8th floor, a beautiful woman walked in. On the way to the lobby the gorgeous woman hit the stop button. She turned to the Bishop and said: “Can you make me feel like a true woman?” The Bishop said: “I sure can” and excitedly took off all his clothes, he then threw them in the corner of the elevator. He turned to the woman pointed to the clothes and said: “Now fold them”.

Bill O’Reilly Sees Dead People

Posted by Brian on April 29th, 2006

Bill O'Reilly continues to amaze reasonable people with his uncanny ability to actually turn off his brain and then talk. I believe it may be the little known medical condition loofatitis. CNN has asked Dr. Gupta to look into the matter further.

Bill O's latest transgression is to ask for his viewers to harass a dead man. He even posted the dead man's phone number on his website - in case that would help. The link is a screen capture of his site because I am quite sure that he will "fix the glitch" soon. The man, Mr. Stephen Rogers, must have found a way to smear Bill from the grave. And when I say smear I mean remind Bill of what he actually did.

Credit goes to the website Sweet Jesus I Hate Bill O'Reilly for identifying this little oversight on Bill's part. Or then again, maybe it wasn't an oversight…

I think that any post relating to the Loofanator from now on must be categorized under Humor.
