Lighten up, folks!
Online conversation I had yesterday:
Person 1: "It's about time Christians started getting mad at they way they're being treated."
Person 2: "Amen brother! I'm sick of people belittling our faith."
Me: "Ooooh...Angry Christians. So when can I expect the Spanish Inquisition?"
At which point the discussion degenerated into name-calling and Christians whining about how they're being oppressed. It was TWO HOURS before anyone got the joke. For fuck's sake, people, Jesus never said you couldn't have a sense of humor!
Oh, and for those who either don't know, or are too wound up to think about it, the answer to the above question is "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!"
