Joke of the Week
Three stupid guys just died and are at the
pearly gates of heaven. St. Peter tells them that they can enter the
gates if they can answer one simple question.
St. Peter asks the first man, "WHAT IS
EASTER?"
The man replies, "Oh, that's easy, it's
the holiday in November when everybody gets together, eats turkey, and
is thankful..."
"WRONG," replies St. Peter, and
proceeds to ask the second man the same question, "WHAT IS
EASTER?"
The second man replies, "No, Easter is
the holiday in December when we put up a nice tree, exchange presents,
and celebrate the birth of Jesus."
St. Peter looks at the second man, shakes
his head in disgust, looks at the third man and asks, "WHAT IS
EASTER?"
The third man smiles and looks St. Pete in
the eye.
"I know what Easter is. Easter is the
Christian holiday that coincides with the Jewish celebration of
Passover. Jesus and his disciples were eating at the last supper and He
was later deceived and turned over to the Romans by one of his
disciples. The Romans took Him to be crucified and was stabbed in the
side, made Him wear a crown of thorns, and He was hung on a cross. He
was buried in a nearby cave which was sealed off by a large boulder.
Every year the boulder is moved aside so that Jesus can come out, and if
He sees his shadow there will be six more weeks of winter."
