Aren’t joke threads prohibited in the BBQ Pit?
You are all going to Hell. I find it reassuring that I’ll have such stimulating company. Or as The Master once said “Heaven for the climate, Hell for the society”.
No, no, no. It stands for Hallowed. It’s right there in the Lord’s Prayer:
Our Lord who art in heaven,
**Hallowed **be thy name…
Jesus Hallowed Christ! It was a family name, of course.
Oh, is that how you spell it? I thought the Psalmist was greeting God by His first name.
I thought it was for “Tiberius”. Though, now that you mention it…
Required link from the master
Terence, this is stupid stuff
You eat your victuals fast enough
There can’t be much amiss, 'tis clear
To see the rate you drink your beer.
Clunk.
The sound the unfunny make when trying to be funny.
A.E. Houseman, unless I’m very much mistaken. Shropshire Lad? Quite the nifty little rhymester, but queer as a blue horse.
Right. Couldn’t agree more. All y’all that have been trying to be funny, but haven’t, stop it. Not being funny, that is.
Aeschines is only funny unintentionally. I think this time he was actually aming for it. Clunk indeed.
Pit Jesus, and the Almighty will smite your bowels.
Oh, so the translation to Spanish is Jesús S. Cristo?
Padre Nuestro que estás en los cielos (and by the way, how come we call him Father but the English version calls him Lord? One of the two translators must’a been smoking illegal substances)
Santificado sea tu nombre…
I agree with Aeschines. “Jesus H. Christ” is just so … common. Trite, even.
Myself, I prefer “Sweet Zombie Jesus”.
The usual translation in English is actually “Our Father . . .”. I’m not sure if WhyNot heard a different version or just forgot. In fact, the prayer is sometimes called the “Our Father”.
Yeah, the first line should be “Our Father…”. not “Our Lord”. Sorry 'bout that. Brain fart.
I appreciate those who complimented my post on its humor, but it wasn’t intended to be funny. At most it should invoke a bitter smile. If Jesus Himself has been coopted by a False Christ (Jesus H.), then what hope is there for civilization? We might as well start worshipping Allah or some crap like that.
No, the real Jesus or bust!
Plaid rabbit. Queer as a plaid rabbit. You never see plaid rabbits.
Um, I don’t think anyone complimented you on your humor. In fact, the people who assumed you must have been trying to make a joke (since no other meaning was obvious) all specifically noted that it wasn’t funny.
I’m just sayin’.
By the way, Jesus told me he thinks you’re annoying.
My WAG is that it comes from the King James Bible, and maybe they used that because people in England at that time understood the concept of a lord as someone you serve.
