punchworthy

A blog whereby I motivate myself, and my readers, to punch me in the mouth.

Jesus-Pumpkining


I once went to a church where they got into a big discussion about whether or not you should participate in Halloween. A (very) few people thought it was fine. Some other people thought it was big-time EVIL. And a third contingency thought it was okay, so long as you Jesus-themed it--like by carving a cross or a dove into your pumpkin instead of scary faces.

That is not the funny part. The funny part is a quote from the youth minister (quiet seriously, I'm afraid), who in order to rebuke this heresy of Jesus-Pumpkining said:

"Carving a cross in a pumpkin is like putting a bible verse on a condom!"

The worst part is, I've never been able to figure out whether or not it would really be such a bad idea to put verses on your condoms. :-\
