Call me crazy - but I've never learned to appreciate jokes about the virgin birth of Messiah.

First of all - it was an entourage in a caravan - not just three magi. They studied the stars and saw the birth of the King of the Jews IN THE STARS and traveled for a very long time to get there. Jesus was probably about two years old by the time they arrived.

Their three gifts were symbolic:

The gold recognized his Kingship. The frankincense recognized his Priesthood. The myrrh addressed his sacrificial death.

I'm aware of the original biblical story nd how it went. I actually had a minister in Church some years ago who addressed the issue of Joseph exactly, without assuming that back then premarital sex never happened or something. It had to have been an issue for him about which he would have had doubts. That he believed Mary at all is rather remarkable when you think about it...

Agreed on that. It took a supernatural messenger to convince him not to "put her away." But then if you put yourself in a Jewish mindset - the very first prophecy in Gen 3:15 speaks of the solution: "And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel.” The first prophecy of a coming Saviour through a woman. It had to be miraculous; women don't have seed. It took me years to get an answer to this verse and what it meant. Amazing.

As for the others --

Loved the Anthony Bourdain quote, but then he had to go wreck it by killing himself.

Loved the patriarchy is back on top, IF dressed as the matriarchy one - THAT is a good one.

Loved the who has the best coke meme - a take off on Louder with Crowder "change my mind" challenge.

Love them!!

Regarding the airport urinal question: that would absolutely work, men instinctively use urine streams as directed liquid weapons. It's one of life's little pleasures.

LOL well thank you for clarifying! Hit the target got it! As someone who has never tried to aim my urine at anything, perhaps due to some XX chromosome or something, it's rather interesting to me....

Surprisingly, one factory in New Jersey is still allowed to import and process coca leaves, make cocaine for eyedrops and send secret ingredients to Coca-Cola.
