Two elderly, excited Southern women were sitting together
in the front pew of church listening to a fiery preacher.
When this preacher condemned the sin of stealing, these
two ladies cried out at the tops of their lungs, "AMEN, BROTHER!"
When the preacher condemned the sin of lust, they yelled
again, "PREACH IT, REVEREND!"
And when the preacher condemned the sin of lying, they
jumped to their feet and screamed, "RIGHT ON, BROTHER! TELL IT LIKE IT
IS... AMEN!"
But when the preacher condemned the sin of gossip, the
two got very quiet. One turned to the other and said, "He's quit preaching
and now he's meddlin'."

God
is sitting in Heaven when a scientist says to Him,
" Lord, we don't need you anymore. Science has finally figured out a way to create life out of nothing. In other words, we can now do what you did in the 'beginning'. "
"Oh, is that so? Tell me..." replies God.
"Well, " says the scientist, "we can take dirt and form it into the likeness of You and breathe life into it, thus creating man."
"Well, that's interesting. Show Me."
So the scientist bends down to the earth and starts to mold the soil.
"Oh no, no, no..." interrupts God,
( I love this )
"Get your own dirt."
