Okay, I have a question here regarding the Wise Men ;)

they got the baby Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh right?

so what did Mary and Joseph DO with this stuff?

and why didn't they bring something more appropriate like toys? I bet if Lego had been invented he'd have wanted some of that :D

They probably sold it for drugs which they then fed to their baby, giving it lots & lots of delusions of grandeur http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish...icons/wink.gif

I always did reckon they shoulda traded those gifts in for a decent present like a box of special brownies. Or even a fresh batch of cliffs gut-buster brownies.

You can always use gold - I know that after playing rpg

And he'd probably have to wait a few years before geting Lego, but a teddy-bear would have been nice ;)

Lord Shield 06-27-2002 08:44 AM

well I don't think they used the gold to send him to college do you? tut! :D

Mary and Joseph enjoyed the glitter of the gold and the smell of frankisence and myrrh while they munched on some of the local peyote buttons ;)

"Check it out Mary.. the camel is asking me directions to Jerueselum"

"Wow Joey dude, Those buttons were really fresh werent they??

:D

In great hurry they probably left the gifts in the stable or gave them as a gift to the inn owner who became very happy [img]smile.gif[/img]

In fact there was a fourth wise man, but they left that out of the bible. He was from Amsterdam and he brought a big box full of XTC pills. That's why Jesus could walk over water and all, you know ? I wonder why they left that out ? [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Dude, just a warning, your sig is too big !

I also wonder why in the bible Jesus goes from the age og 12 to 30 with out a word being mentioned, was he really such a tough teenager...?
I mean he could turn water into wine...
Can't you just see him getting all drunk with his friends then cruise around on a mule turning people into lepers

No wonder there isn't a word about it...
And poor Mary and Joseph had to use the gold to pay the victims compensation

Dude, don't you know, that's because from his 18th until his 25th he was a footballhooligan, spending a lot of time in prison. They left that out too, you'll need a copy of the uncutt version. :D :D

Because the gospels weren't written as a biography, either in intent or application.

hmmmm

"Jesus Christ - the Growing Pains"

there woould be a book and a half

The Frankenseince and Merr were burnt into the air... as for the gold?

well Jesus had to get the clothes on his back from SOMEWHERE...

The Hunter of Jahanna 06-28-2002 06:11 PM

Aside from the gold who needs frankensence and myrr?? Instead of the 3 wise men they should have been called the 1 wise man and 2 go tards!! Why didnt they bring the cigars and the beer like there SUPPOSEDto do?? Whenever anyone in my family has ever had a kid that is what we bring. Cash,booze and smokes are exactly what a parent needs to get through night after night of a crying baby. They can buy earplugs , get the kid drunk and drowsy , and if all else fails , smoke while they pace the house with the little nipper.
