"WHO ARE THEY"

Postby godzuki on November 15th, 2007, 8:00 am

A MAN DIED AND WENT TO HEAVEN. ST. PETER ASKED, "WHAT DENOMINATION ARE YOU?" AND THE MAN SAID "I DON'T BELONG HERE, I DON'T GO TO CHURCH.' ST. PETER SAID, "WELL, WE DON'T MAKE MISTAKES, YOU BELONG HERE. LET'S JUST WALK AROUND AND YOU CAN DECIDE WHERE YOU'D LIKE TO STAY."

SO THEY WALKED DOWN THE HALL, AND ST. PETER OPENED A DOOR. THERE WERE ALL THESE PEWS WITH PEOPLE KNEELING AND PRAYING AND CROSSING THEMSELVES. "WHO ARE THEY?" ASKED THE MAN. "THOSE ARE THE CATHOLICS," ANSWERED ST. PETER. "WELL, I DON'T WANT TO STAY THERE," SAID THE MAN, AND THEY WALKED ON DOWN THE HALL.

ST. PETER OPENED THE NEXT DOOR, AND THERE WERE ALL THESE PEWS WITH PEOPLE SITTING IN THEM STARING STRAIGHT AHEAD. "WHO ARE THEY?" ASKED THE MAN. "THOSE ARE THE PROTESTANTS," ANSWERED ST. PETER. "WELL, I DON'T WANT TO STAY HERE," SAID THE MAN, AND THEY WALKED ON DOWN THE HALL.

THE NEXT ROOM THEY WENT INTO, THE MAN SMELLED COFFEE AS SOON AS THE DOOR OPENED. THE MAN LOOKED INSIDE AND THERE WERE ALL THESE PEOPLE LAUGHING AND HUGGING EACH OTHER. HE WATCHED THEM STAND IN A CIRCLE AND SAY THE SERENITY PRAYER. THE MAN SAID, "I LIKE THESE PEOPLE, WHO ARE THEY?" ST. PETER SHRUGGED HIS SHOULDERS AND SAID, "I DON'T KNOW, THEY WON'T TELL US." smilesmilesmile

LOL...Finding Nemo is such a cute movie, I actually describe my spiritual beliefs as, "My Finding Nemo philosophy on God" ... all drains lead to the ocean...all paths lead to God.

Don't know if anyone's heard this joke:

There was an NA member that got ship wrecked on an island, completely alone and stranded. With no hope for rescue, he started building himself a new life on the island. One day, a ship rolled in to rescue him, and low and behold, there were more recovering addicts in the rescue party. He had been shipwrecked for several years by this time and was showing his new friends around. They noticed he had not one, but three huts built along the beach. One of the addicts asked him why he'd built three huts instead of just one. To which he replied, "The hut on the left is my home. That's where I sleep and eat. The hut on the right is my Home Group where I have meetings." The addict replied, "WOW! That takes some real dedication to NA to build a meeting place on a deserted island! But what's the hut in the middle?" "Oh," the man replied, "that's my OLD home group...I had to leave it, the members were quite disagreeable there."
