Three blondes.....

[Rustler9]

Three blondes died in a car crash trying to jump the Grand Canyon and are at the Pearly Gates of heaven. St. Peter tells them that they can enter the gates if they can answer one
simple question.

St. Peter asks the first blonde, "What is Easter?" The blonde replies, "Oh, that's easy! It's the holiday in November when everyone gets together, eats turkey and is thankful..."

"Wrong!, You must go to HELL" replies St. Peter, and proceeds to ask the second blonde the same question, "What is Easter?"

The second blonde replies, "Easter is the holiday in December when we put up a nice tree, exchange presents and celebrate the birth of Jesus." St. Peter looks at the second blonde, bangs his head in disgust on the Pearly Gates, tells her she's wrong and to go to HELL, and then peers over his glasses at the third blonde and asks, "What is Easter?"

The third blonde smiles confidently and looks St. Peter in the eyes, "I know what Easter is." "Oh?" says St. Peter, incredulously.

"Easter is the Christian holiday that coincides with the Jewish celebration of Passover. Jesus and his disciples were eating at the last supper and Jesus was later deceived and turned over to the Romans by one of his disciples. The Romans took him to be crucified and he was stabbed in the side, made to wear a crown of thorns, and was hung on a cross with nails through his hands. He was buried in a nearby cave which was sealed off by a large boulder."

St. Peter smiles broadly with delight. The third blonde continues, "Every year the boulder is moved aside so that Jesus can come out... and, if he sees his shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter."

Not really even that funny, It could be to close to some peoples understanding of Easter

I don't see how this can be too close to anyone's understanding of Easter, there's nothing about seeing your shadow involved with Easter. This was sent to me as a joke and not meant to offend anyone. If it did-sorry. :shock:

I thought it was great! No NORMAL human being could think this is anything other than a joke. If this is someones understanding of Easter, then they're doing it wrong. :roll:

(edited to say the last part isn't normal, the rest is perfect. )

Perhaps you could define 'normal' as the word leaves a lot of room for interpretation. Perceptions vary - often quite widely - according to one's background, upbringing, culture, values, beliefs, and external inputs and to make this kind of statement indicates a certain amount of arrogance and lack of understanding for others, IMHO. I'm not looking to start a fight or cause feelings of annoyance, or dissent, nor do I mean to to make anyone feel bad - I'm simply trying to present an alternativie viewpoint where others are concerned. Please think about it? Thank you for listening.

Well maybe I shouldn't have put "normal". Maybe I should have put "those that celebrate Easter." and I was really only reffering to the last part of the joke, which is obviously reffering to "Groundhog Day". So maybe I should say, I don't know anyone that celebrates Easter, that also celebrates Groundhog Day at the same time. Plus it was midnight, I was tired, and it was a poor attempt at humor.
