Why in the world is that funny, HS, it's certainly not accurate!
I didn't miss your point. I just don't know how you could know what Jesus would or wouldn't do in different circumstances.zoegirl wrote:ah, you completely missed my point. Even if the obama cartoon isn't accurate (although I would debate that)....it is still witty....
If accuracy is going to be the judge of humor, then the Jesus cartoon certainly isn't accruate....I look at that and scratch my head because Jesus wouldn't do that....He willingly gave Himself....wouldn't matter if there were guns (what, you think the Creator of the universe couldn't "go Columbine?")
so better apply the test equally
Let's face it....you idn't find it funny (the obama cartoon) because you were offended at the political statement. But it's still witty
Um, yeah, we can....it's called Scripture....it describes His character. Wouldn't matter if there were guns, the point is He went willingly, He gave Himself.humblesmurph wrote:I didn't miss your point.

This cartoon is presumably premised on Christian belief. Therefore, to be in accord with Christian theology.humblesmurph wrote:I didn't miss your point.

Your sense of humour and words elsewhere appear to betray your profile.smiley wrote:

Now, can I look at that and give a little chuckle...eh....point is, it you are goign to claim accuracy as your test for humor then this fails.
Just clarifying that my comments here were directed at smiley.humblesmurph wrote:Kurieuo wrote:Your sense of humour and words elsewhere appear to betray your profile.smiley wrote:

I'm not sure what you mean. Is being humble not saying what one thinks? Is being humble only agreeing with you? The point of the cartoon may or may not have been that Jesus was just a man, and if he could have defended himself, he would have. I didn't draw or post the cartoon so I don't know. I'm not saying that Jesus was just a man, I'm just saying that I found the cartoon funny. Respectfully, I think it best if we drop this line of discussion.
