What if Joseph had been a plumber?

 

Rather than a carpenter?

Even though he didn't get to REALLY be the father of Jesus, he could have helped out the locals more than just building things. Sanitation could have improved. Also, plumbers are pretty well paid when you need one. 

Think about it. How would you go using something like this?

Well, at least you'd have company.

It's unlikely that God needs to go to the toilet, but, if He did, He might need three of these toilets - don't forget God the Son and God the Bird. Though, I suppose that God the Bird would just go from a tree, or something similar.

I'm going off religion a bit at the moment. There are too many questions that seem to have silly answers. Adam and Eve certainly don't seem to fit in with evolution. If evolution is true, as it seems to be, where does Original Sin fit in? The dying on the cross thing might have been a waste of time too. If it ever happened. I think I'm going to keep an open mind, but I certainly won't be getting baptised as a Catholic. I'll just try to live a good life and be nice to people, even Geon. I don't think the Salvation Army is really for me either. Brass bands aren't my favourite style of music. 

Have fun boys, and don't get hung up on sin.

  2. Hi Banjo. 'Sup?

    (That's a little wine industry joke there but I doubt that you as a likely wowser would understand it).

    Good luck with that religion stuff.

  3. I heard my name mentioned on some other blog that had a reference to yours. Weird.
    If you need some advice just write me a letter via my blog.
    If that's a bit beyond your communication abilities and/or your available time given that you are likely up to your armpits in shit most days - (is that why you've been dabbling in Robert's religion?) - then The Curmudgeon can write a letter for you.

    Tatta.

Don't be a Catholic!

 Hi all. I've recently been to a film about how Catholics and nuns (particularly) treated single young mums in Ireland. 'Small Thing...
