Anyone know any of those corny Bible jokes such as:
When was the first cricket match held in the Bible? When Peter stood up with
the eleven.
When was the first motor car race? When Moses tore up the desert in his
triumph.

That's the sort of thing I'm chasing, so if you can help it would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks

Russell

My favorite is a two parter. The first part is the world's oldest doctor
joke. The second is the worlds oldest lawyer joke.

After Moses led his people out of Egypt, the people became unhappy. The
desert was hot, everyone was tired and hungry, and they had been out for
a long time without any indication of when they would get where they were
going.

Finally they came to Mr. Sinai. Moses went up the mountain, just to get
away from his bitching hordes. He sat down on a rock, held his head in
his hands, and murmured to himself, "My god! Sometimes these people give
me such a headache!"

After a while, Moses heard a booming voice from the heavens. It said,
"Moses. I am here to help you. Take these two tablets. And call me in
the morning."

The next day Moses went down the mountain. His people all shouted,
asking what happened. Moses responded,

"I have good news and bad news. The good news is, I've negotiated him
down from 40 to 10. The bad news is, adultery is still one of them."

Cars were mentioned in the Bible: "The apostles were in one ACCORD"

Sports are mentioned in the Bible: "David served in King Saul's courts"

Kids are a great sources for this type of humor...as the child prayed "Our

A doctor, an architect and a politician sitting around in a bar, arguing
theology. The doctor claims that the first proffesion was a doctor. 'After
all, the Almighty created Adam and then made Eve from his rib.'

'Good point,' agrees the architect, 'but before that, the Almighty created
the world out of chaos.'

'Ah,' said the politician, 'who do you think created the chaos?'

I have the "The complete book of Bible Trivia" with me at work. It's witty
to read. Here are some of the jokes taken from the book:

Q: Why was Moses the most wicked man?
A: He broke all Ten Commandments at once.

Q: Who was the greatest speaker?
A: Samson -- he brought the house down even though it was filled with his
enemies.

Q: What Bible character may have only been a foot tall?
A: Nicodemus, since he was a ruler.

Q: Who was the fastest runner in the Bible?
A: Adam--he was first in the human race.

Q: What city was named after something you find on a car?
A: Tyre.

Q: What prophet was a space traveler?
A: Elijah--he went up in a fiery chariot.

And here are a few Trivias

1 Q: What is the first commandement in the Bible?
2 Q: Saul was the first king of Israel. Who was second? (Hint: it wasn't
David.)
3 Q: What prophet was trapped against a wall by an angel with a drawn sword?


Answers to above trivias.

1 A: "Be fruitful and multiply" Genesis 1:28
2 A: Ishbosheth. 2 Samuel 2:8-10
3 A: Elisha. 2 Kings 13:17

That's the first time. The second time baseball is mentioned is
when Eve stole first, Adam stole second and the Lord threw them
out.


Tennis? When Joseph served in Pharoah's court.

The bible also recognizes how strange relationships really
are (or is it promoting homosexuality??):

"Love is a queer thing. Who can understand it?"

Hey! If it's in the bible it must be true!

Reminds me...a couple of xmas's ago, my then 2YO daughter got a box
in the mail and, because I had great difficulty pulling the contents out,
I said "JESUS!" Now, upon seeing that I had pulled out a humanoid
object roughly the size of a baby, Molly exclaimed "It's Baby Jesus!"
Ever since then, she has called her sock monkey Baby Jesus. Somehow,
to me, it is very ironic...
