This is a link which shows that MOSES was the first person to down load the ten commandments from cloud, and also the first to own a Triumph since it says in the scriptures that he came down in his Triumph?
Do you know of any other comparisons?

@onebigvoice I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I have another comparison, I have been taking Joshua to school for years and in that time he had been diagnosed with ADHD, now generally he is as good as gold, but every now and again like some he goes off the rails.
If you find things that interest him he is like a sponge for more information, but some times this works in reverse when asked maths questions he works them out in his head, since I used to "grill him " with facts about mental arithmetic sums, but does become bored when questions on the board are worked out by him before the chalk has left the board.
In being asked in a bible quiz he was asked a question:
The next day the teacher saw the his mum out shopping, she explained to the mother what happened the day before. The mother said 'If my son says he didn't knock that wall down, then he didn't do it.'The teacher was so stunned she went to visit the boys father the next day. She said I'm very worried about your son because at school I asked him who knocked down the walls of Jericho and he said it wasn't him. Then I told your wife what happened and she said ' If my child said he didn't knock that wall down then he didn't do it.'
The father said ' Well I don't want any trouble, how much did this wall cost?'
The question to Joshua was who knocked down the walls of Jericho?
Some times hidden illnesses cause other problems in lateral thinking?0 -
Thanks for sharing with us @onebigvoice. I found your thread very interesting0

I have decided to add an, up graded into the 21st century joke about the scriptures and Technology.
We need to be able to laugh about things:
An old priest died and arrived at the Gates of Heaven
Next to him was a young Uber driver who died seconds ago from his reckless driving.(Translated and modernized from an old joke in a different language)
The priest was called first, and St Peter said, "For your life long career working for the church, we will give you a small studio where you can stay at for the rest of eternity."
Then St Peter turns to the Uber driver, and said, "For your 2 years as an Uber driver, we will give you a giant mansion by the lake, and a Ferrari in a heated garage."
The priest thought it was strange and unfair, and protested, "Why does the Uber driver deserve so much more than me, when I have devoted my whole life to the church and God?"
St Peter explained, "You see - during your sermons, half of the audience was sleeping, and the other half was just looking at their phones; but when the Uber driver was driving, everyone was praying!"1 -
Last year "DOH" I had a section on quotes and technology and religion, these were jokes that I hope and were not meant to be against any ones religion but a light hearted look at were we are now with humour.
With that in mind I have expanded the jokes a little and hope that we are all adults here and keep the jokes within the adult humour.
So this is my first attempt at that:
We now have the technology to build a new penis.
Doctor Cohen comes in and says, "Ah, I see you've regained consciousness. Now, you probably won't remember, but you were in a huge pile-up on the freeway. You're going to be okay, you'll walk again and everything, however your penis was severed in the accident and we couldn't find it."
The man, Max, groans, but the doctor goes on, "You have £9,000 in insurance compensation coming and we now have the technology to build a new penis. They work great but they don't come cheap. It's roughly £1,000 an inch."
The man perks up. So, the doctor says, "You must decide how many inches you want. But understand that you have been married for over thirty years and this is something you should discuss with your wife. If you had a five incher before and get a nine incher now she might be a bit put out. If you had a nine incher before and you decide to only invest in a five incher now, she might be disappointed. It's important that she plays a role in helping you make a decision."
Max agrees to talk it over with his wife.
The doctor comes back the next day, "So, have you spoken with your wife?"
"Yes I have," says Max. "We're getting granite counter tops.”
My wife's sense of humour since we are coming up to our 50th Anniversary this year in June.....0 -
Here are two quick one liners:
Who was the first person that used technology?
Moses. He had two tablets that where connected to the cloud.My grandfather says I’m too reliant on technology.
I called him a hypocrite and unplugged his life support.
Have a go and post a joke? Then again you only have to read some of my posts so I'm told to have a laugh..... Ha Ha Ha Ha......... come on Guys and Galls get posting.0 -
I proudly showed my son, "Check this out! Bought a new shrub trimmer today!" He shrugged and replied, "That's great, dad." I continued...
"It’s cutting hedge technology!"1 -
Haven't posted for a while but here is a few jokes:
guys pray for my friend. He told me he only believed 12.5% of the bible...
he said he's an eighth theist.
A bit long but it made me laugh.
A pastor concluded that his church was getting into very serious financial troubles. While checking the church storeroom, he discovered several cartons of new bibles that had never been opened and distributed.
So at his Sunday sermon, he asked for three volunteers from the congregation who would be willing to sell the bibles door-to-door for $10 each to raise the desperately needed money for the church.
Jack, Paul and Louie all raised their hands to volunteer for the task.
The minister knew that Jack and Paul earned their living as salesmen and were likely capable of selling some bibles. But he had serious doubts about Louie who was a local farmer, who had always kept to himself because he was embarrassed by his speech impediment.
Poor Louie stuttered badly. But, NOT WANTING TO discourage Louie, the minister decided to let him try anyway.
He sent the three of them away with the back seat of their cars stacked with bibles. He asked them to meet with him and report the results of their door-to-door selling efforts the following Sunday.
Anxious to find out how successful they were, the minister immediately asked Jack, 'Well, Jack, how did you make out selling our bibles last week?'
Proudly handing the reverend an envelope, Jack replied, 'Using my sales prowess, I was able to sell 20 bibles, and here's the $200 I collected on behalf of the church.'
'Fine job, Jack!' The minister said, vigorously shaking his hand... 'You are indeed a fine salesman and the Church is indebted to you.'
Turning to Paul, 'And Paul, how many bibles did you sell for the Church last week?'
Paul, smiling and sticking out his chest, confidently replied, 'I am a professional salesman. I sold 28 bibles on behalf of the church, and here's $280 I collected.'
The minister responded, 'That's absolutely splendid, Paul. You are truly a professional salesman and the church is indebted to you.'
Apprehensively, the minister turned to Louie and said, 'And Louie, did you manage to sell any bibles last week?' Louie silently offered the minister a large envelope.
The minister opened it and counted the contents. 'What is this?' the minister exclaimed. 'Louie, there's $3200 in here! Are you suggesting that you sold 320 bibles for the church, door to door, in just one week?'
Louie just nodded.
'That's impossible!' both Jack and Paul said in unison. 'We are professional salesmen, yet you claim to have sold 10 times as many bibles as we could.'
'Yes, this does seem unlikely,' the minister! agreed. 'I think you'd better explain how you managed to accomplish this, Louie.'
Louie shrugged.. 'I-I-I re-re-really do-do-don't kn-kn-know f-f-f-for sh-sh-sh-sure,' he stammered.
Impatiently, Peter interrupted. 'For crying out loud, Louie, just tell us what you said to them when they answered the door!'
'A-a-a-all I-I-I s-s-said wa-wa-was,' Louis replied, 'W-w-w-w-would y-y-y-you l-l-l-l-l-like t-t-to b-b-b-buy th-th-th-this b-b-b-b-bible f-f-for t-t-ten b-b-b-bucks ---o-o-o-or--- wo-wo-would yo-you j-j-j-just l-like m-m-me t-t-to st-st-stand h-h-here and r-r-r-r-r-read it t-to y-y-you??'0 -
I don't know why I picked on the Bible to joke about, but with these days of Nostradamus, and Nanna the seer I just thought I would give my views.
It must be said it is never my intention to mock or slander any God, but as a light hearted view only.
With that in mind:
I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older
then it dawned on me – they’re cramming for their final exams.There are two great financial geniuses in the Bible
One was Noah, who floated his stock while everyone else had to go into liquidation.
The other one was pharaoh's daughter, who went to the bank of the Nile and drew out a prophet.1 -
For the sports people, I'm afraid you don't escape.
What was the first mention of tennis in the Bible?
When Joseph served in Pharaoh's court.0 -
Well since technology seems to be the top of every ones agenda:
My Technology Is Better Than Yours
Three men - an American, a Japanese and an Irishman - were sitting naked in a sauna.
Suddenly there was a beeping sound. The American pressed his forearm and the beep stopped. The others looked at him questioningly.
"That was my pager," he said. "I have a microchip under the skin of my arm."
A few minutes later a phone rang.
The Japanese fellow lifted his palm to his ear. When he finished, he explained, "That was my mobile phone. I have a microchip in my hand."
The Irishman felt decidedly low tech and, not wanting to be outdone, he decided he had to do something just as impressive. He stepped out of the sauna and went to the bathroom. He returned with a piece of toilet paper hanging from his behind.
The others raised their eyebrows and stared at him.
"It appears that you've got a bit a of a stuck paper problem there," pointed the amused American. "Well, will you look at that. I must be getting a fax!" Declared the Irishman.

Whoever said technology will replace paper

So there's this bar in New York called Walter's...
So there's this bar in New York called Walter's - it's named after the guy who runs the place, Walter Green. He's an older guy who doesn't understand a lot of technological stuff, and so the bar is plain and simple, just as it was when he first opened it back in the 1960s. One of Walter's regular customers is Joe, a theoretical physicist at a nearby lab who was working on a secretive time travel project. Their idea was that instead of bringing people from the modern day back in time, they could bring notable figures from the past into the present day through effectively making a copy of them - therefore not creating any time paradoxes or stuff like that. After years of work, they managed to finally get a working prototype going.
Their first test was bringing Albert Einstein into the present day, as they thought he'd be interested in their invention. After they achieved this, they explained how it works. Einstein was absolutely astonished at their work, and congratulated them profusely. After this, the team, plus Einstein, went out for a drink at Walter's, as they thought the bar wouldn't overwhelm their guest too much with new technology. They all had the best night of their lives - Einstein got incredibly drunk and nearly forgot he'd been brought to the future until he stepped outside again.
The next day, after saying their farewells to Einstein, they struggled to figure out who to bring back next. Joe had been reading a book about the history of communications in America, and the idea of bringing back Samuel Morse came to mind. The others agreed that he would be an interesting person to talk to, and so they set about bringing him to the present. After they went through the same explanation as they did with Einstein, they decided to try and re-create the experience they gave him.
The team walked down to Walter's again, Samuel Morse in tow. However, this time, there was a problem. When they entered the bar, Morse was disgusted, and explained that he was a committed teetotaler who had not drunk a drop of alcohol in his life. No matter how they insisted, he simply refused to even try a drink. Running out of ideas, the rest of the team brought Morse back to the lab. Joe stayed behind to apologise to his friend about the angry reaction they got from Samuel Morse.
"I just don't see what his problem was. Einstein had a great time here, but Morse just wasn't having it at all."
Walter poured himself a drink, and took a long sip before replying to Joe:
"You know what they say; you can take Morse to Walter's, but you can't make him drink."0 -
So here's another light hearted look at religion:
Most will make you groan:1. What did pirates call Noah’s boat? “The arrrrrrk.”2. Why didn’t anyone want to fight Goliath? It seemed like a giant ordeal.[Removed by moderator as members may find content disrespectful, upsetting or offensive]. Others need to write otherwise I WILL continue......7.8.
9. Then again.and finally 10.
there were a few other inspirational saying but there is always next time?You have been warned...... he, he, he,he..... I have run out of Ha HA HA ha, DOH.
