Atheism

That joke has been around long enough to qualify for a pension, but a good pun doesn’t have to be new. It only has to make somebody groan.

Some people will laugh. Some will roll their eyes. Somebody will point out the difference between “prophet” and “profit,” just in case the rest of us missed it.

Thank you. We got there.

Religion and belief can lead to serious conversations, and I’m willing to have those when the occasion calls for them. A pun on a Tuesday morning is a different matter. It asks for about three seconds of attention and, if you’re feeling generous, a reluctant smile.

That may be why I like old jokes. They give people who disagree about nearly everything else a chance to groan together.
I’ll take that as a small success.
