back then?Seems to be the defining factor of religion back then, but lets not paint them as something other than a closed group, intolerant of others.

Yes Phil, back then. That time you were referring to in your last post.back then?
When you are stuck in a large shopping center waiting for the wife etc to finish shopping Here are some ideas to fill in time
Go to Kmart Target etc and
Take packets of condoms and put them in peoples carts when they arn't looking then watch them at the checkout.
Set all the alarm clocks to go off at 5 minute intervals
Make a trail of tomato sauce to the toilet
Walk up to an employee and in an official tone tell her " Code 3 in home-wear" Then watch what happens
Go to the service desk and lay-buy a packet of M&M's
Move the Wet Floor Signs to any carpet areas
Set up a tent in the camping area
Stand under the security camera look right into it and pick your nose
Hide in a clothing rack and when people browse yell "Pick Me!" "Pick Me!"
Whenever an announcement comes over the loud speakers fall to the floor and yell "No No its the voices again"
Go to the change room wait a few minutes then yell " Some help here please there's no toilet paper in this one"
Change the channels on the display TV's
Tie all the shoe laces in the shoe department in double knots
Test ride a push bike
By this time your wife's finished shopping or you have to leave anyway
If you can think of a bigger joke than religion, I'm dying to hear it...
Is there not an "off topic" emoticon?
This is supposed to be a joke thread.

I was meaning it it's still much the same. I'm not sure which post you're referring to though.Yes Phil, back then. That time you were referring to in your last post.
Speaking as a historian of the period I’m afraid that’s not at all accurate. The Puritan émigrés were really quite rigid, intolerant Protestants who sought to “build Gods kingdom” in the New World. The communities they established on the East coast were run on very rigid d strict lines.Interesting view on the pilgrim fathers who were feeing religious persecution from the rigid church of England. All they wanted to do was live without fear or prejudice from persecution. Ironic as the church of England came out of RC persecution a century earlier!
Ahh I see now. I took the question mark as a question, rather than a statement.I was meaning it it's still much the same. I'm not sure post you're referring to though.

That's your interpretation of history not exact historical tbh.Speaking as a historian of the period I’m afraid that’s not at all accurate. The Puritan émigrés were really quite rigid, intolerant Protestants who sought to “build Gods kingdom” in the New World. The communities they established on the East coast were run on very rigid d strict lines.
Ok. Back to the jokes …!!!!
True, it's no joke.Sadly today, many US religious groups (calling themselves Christians and invariably vrey far right - and of course never wrong...) have a seriously intolerant view to anyone who doesn't subscribe to their particular brand of religion (and that can include intolerance towards other factions/versions of Christianity too which abound). Woe betide any politician seeking office who doesn't subscribe to and go along with the local church group in his/her area and their particular views on many matters. Some of these groups are emulating tactics and policies of assorted theocracies which now permeate across the Middle East and elsewhere. Margaret Attwood's A Hand Maiden's Tale etc. is fast becoming a reality in many areas.
Well you got that right!! I thought I was going to see some Jokes today, how wrong can you be.True, it's no joke.
It's called 'mission creep'Well you got that right!! I thought I was going to see some Jokes today, how wrong can you be.
