My wife asked me this yesterday.
"What do you like most about me?
Is it my pretty face or my sexy body?"

"I just love your sense of humor."

Careful What You Preach...
A minister was completing a temperance sermon. With great emphasis he said,
'If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river.'
With even greater emphasis he said, 'And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river.'
And then finally, shaking his fist in the air, he said, 'And if I had all the whisky in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river.'
Sermon complete, he sat down ...
The choir leader stood up very cautiously and announced with a smile, almost laughing, 'For our closing Hymn,

Q: What ruined religion for you...
Answers... (If you don't laugh you're going to cry.)
Seeing a whole congregation of people perform an “exorcism” on a 5-year-old boy.
Being kicked out of Christian school prior to the third grade because my Mom bought the wrong edition of the bible.
The non-answers to all my questions as a kid. “You just have to have faith” is a dumb way to respond to an inquisitive mind.
Learning that the Catholic Church ran women's homes where they kidnapped babies, sold the ones that didn’t die, and used their mothers as forced labor.
For me, it was when everyone found out tons of priests were fucking little kids and the church protected them instead of punishing them and reporting it to the police.
Seeing how people use religion as an excuse to be shitty people around the world. So many people just bend their interpretation of a religion to fit whatever they want.
Going to a megachurch. They received over 1 mil in donations every weekend and spent it on elaborate props and videos rather than helping the community in any meaningful way.
Really toxic people at my church growing up. Seeing people only go to church to make connections and gossip rather than actually worship and do good for others.
When I was sexually assaulted by another boy and I spoke to my pastor because I was afraid to tell my family. He asked me what I did to make the other kid have impure thoughts and tried to make it out to be my fault.
When I was 6 years old, the pastor gave a letter to my aunt to give to my mom saying that we were not donating enough money to the church. So we stopped going, and I have never been to church since.
So many things but the final straw for me was my church asking a homeless man to leave and not come back. He would sit and listen to the sermons never bothered anyone and always sat in the very back. I confronted my youth group leader and she defended the preacher.
When the pastor started ranting about the evils of women, saying that Satan walks among us in the body of every female and men must take measures against them. It was later enforced in my mind when I met his very timid granddaughter in high school. She fully believed she was cursed from birth and showed serious signs of abuse.
This 13-year-old kid got exposed for being gay and was bullied into suicide by his family for it. I remember during summers they would send him to a special camp to cure his gayness. I was really good friends with his little sister and she would always say how embarrassing it was to have a gay brother and would hope he would become straight. He ended up hanging himself at 13 or 14.
I was 15. My father had been diagnosed with ALS. I had gone to a youth group thing with a Christian friend of mine and they had a circle of teenagers going around talking about things going on in their lives and relating it to God. When it was my turn, I shared that my father was dying and I didn’t understand why him, I was angry and I said something along the lines of I doubted there was a God if this was happening…I got chewed out for even questioning God and the rest of the kids refused to talk to me the rest of the night including my friend. You would think I had killed someone it was THAT strong of a reaction.
Grilling naked in your backyard is the best way to get your neighbors to pay for a privacy fence.
I was told off for using a word in a report that my boss didn't know ("minutiae").
I asked her to give me a list of all the words she doesn't know so it won't happen again.
It's not an empty nest until they get their stuff out of the basement.
I decided to make sure my wife woke up with a smile on her face this morning.
I can't have sharpies in the house anymore.

NOT laughing at the religious one. Sobbing. And swearing. In equal measure. Ok, swearing more than I am sobbing.
Sue - I can go with that.
So many reasons to give up on religion. The biggest reasons are 1: the churches have SO MUCH MONEY yet ask the poor to donate what they can for the Lord. 2: the child abuse thing.
And everything else you wrote here.
I did laugh at "Shall we Gather at the River"
It's just too early in the morning to get me started on religion.
"Let me drink about it and get back to you" would look great on a t-shirt.
I'm with Sue -- about the sobbing and the swearing.
"What ruined religion for you" should have been a separate post. The heartbreaking answers were not meant to be humorous.
These were all funny, except the stories of why people left religion. Those were heartbreaking. Especially the young man who hanged himself.
River - A river joke you can tell.
Simmons - I know.
Kathy - Even though I'd never heard that phrase before, apparently other people have.

John - I almost added your story (anonymously) at the end.
Deb - I know. I thought about making it the Long Joke Sunday post but didn't want to mess up Easter for some people. The day between Good Friday and Easter seemed like the time to sneak them in.
Shaw - It's been a controversial Saturday Jokes day.
Relationscripts is pretty clever. They would always have something to talk about. What ruined religion was pretty profound and sad.
Why do you think Jesus wept? Shortest verse in the Bible.
Got to go,
The first coat is dry.

Lady - It would be interesting to see the odds of finding someone taking the exact same meds as you.
Cloudia - John 11:35.
How many coats are you going to do?
Catholic priests are often statisticians too;
they are mean and have the standard deviation :-(
Stu - Are you sure they are not out to the 3rd deviation?
Wouldn't be hard for me Mike - since kicking my gabapentin for the shingles I take 0. His Lordship takes 0 too - so I guess that is why our relationscript works.
Lady - What do you do with all that extra money you must have?
Religious hypocrites aside, some good laughs. Sense of humor and gather at the river are favorites.
Regarding the religion section, evil is done by those in all walks of life. Of course it is horrendous. Most adherents of most religions don't live the life it espouses. If they did, the world would be a very different place!
Allen - You can redo the sense of humor one to use on your (wife?).
The debate about the husband falling down the stairs - 🤣. Yes, religion has a lot to answer for ☹️.
CC - Yes it does.
