I’d understand if you think that everything reminds me of a joke because it’s basically true. Except, of course, when I’m feeling particularly cynical. Then everything is a joke. I was reminded of this story while watching the performances of Godspell.

The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?”

Jesus said to them, “If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.”

Just then a stone came sailing over their heads from the back of the crowd.

Jesus turned, looked, and said, “Oh, Mom!”

If I’m going to hell, I’m going down laughing….
