Reminds me of a few Christians I know, they go about their lives acting like jerks and doing whatever they want, but they say grace and go to church and it's all good. I like the joke in that respect.
Note: I am not saying most Christians are like that, but some of them are.
why bother? i did after seeing that bullsh*t and it only went downhill from there. religious humor is generally pathetic. maybe you should replace it with an another religion like islam or budhism. the guy walks through the woods admiring the works of allah or whatever, and then bam a bear slams him down and the true god starts babbling about christianity to him. oh thats funny. then the bear prays b4 he dines.. oh thats funny
um ok. you know nothing about me. i think some religious jokes are funny. many involve pastors nuns priests... maybe you have to be jewish to be funny though, i dunno
what i do know is this joke isn't funny or even witty, its just pathetic.
as for christians, i'm sure some aren't happy to be associated with tm37.

OK not my fault you were LOOKING to be offended. Damn I never thought someone would say even chistians wouldn't want to be associated with me. WHo can I count on to stand with me if not the lowly christians. So Jokes are only funny if they poke fun at the religion itself. You can laugh at the clergy because you think they are wrong but if someone makes a joke at the expenceof something that you may beleive in (or not) (I still don't get the athiest movement the idea of standing up and saying I REALLY DON'T BELIEVE IN THIS really is comical if you think about it.) Saying I am unfunny is one thing but reading WAY MORE into a simple little joke is another.

Whether this joke is virulently anti-semitic or harmlessly cute depends on a number of factors,including who is telling it (Jew or Gentile,male or female), what is the intention or motive of the teller (since intention is not easy to determine,partly because it is buried in the intervening personality and taste components,we cannot be sure if it is hostile or not),and the precise nature of the context (among Jewish friends or non Jewish strangers,in an atmosphere of joy and playfulness or hate and anger). In the illustrations provided below,we can only speculate about the intentions of the humour makers. Although it appears to those Jewish individuals who conducted studies on humorous material that there was a correlation between it and the rise or triggering of anti-Semitism,we cannot be sure and should be careful not to jump to unwarranted conclusions.

your joke isn't funny because its meant to be more of a mastabatory message for your followers then anything really funny.
