I was at mass at lunch time today (24 May is an important feast day in Australia) and - bang on cue - the mobiles started ringing at the most inappropriate points: during the sermon, during the consecration etc. The priest was so fed up that he stopped at one point to ask one repeat offender to “turn it off or leave the church”.
These people have no manners at all.
But what if Jesus calls?
If He wants to get a message through I’m sure He can do so without using a mobile phone.
You’re right, those roaming charges would be a bitch for Jesus.
Why doesn’t God just turn 'em off Himself? I thought he was supposed to be all-powerful.
Saturday before last I was at a Memorial Service for my husband’s sister’s husband’s father. In the church, in the middle of the service, some idiot’s cell phone kept ringing. At a MEMORIAL SERVICE!!! I was ready to brain the numbskull.
People. They suck.
Ooh, I would LOVE to see some people get smote. “Blah blah blah yeah, I’m just in church, I should be home by…” ZOT!!!
That’d learn 'em.
I bet Jesus has a way cool cell phone.
I was thinking God could just push the “off” button, but that’d work too, I guess. 
I bet he gets roll-over minutes, though.
Why not? His dad has a cool Escalade.
These phones are going off even at funeral services. That surely deserves a ZAP or two, doesn’t it?
Jesus was way cool, man.
Everybody liked Jesus
Everybody wanted to hang out with him
Anything he wanted to do, he did
He turned water into wine
And if he wanted to
He could have turned wheat into marijuana…
If I was the priest, I would have stopped the sermon, walked down the aisle, snatched the mobiles from those bastards, and dumped them in the donation basket. “Thankyou for the valuable contribution…oh, you want it back? You don’t care about the starving children in Africa? Tut, tut…”
Not to mention his ringtone.
I took a friend to Purim services back in March. She had the audacity to check her phone messages during the service. That was when I realized that even Purim (which is a lot like Mardi Gras) has some standards of decorum.
Sheesh! Some people couldn’t be surgically disconnected from their cell phones.
I wonder if they have an in-family plan?
