The Problem of Evil

[Cow Poke]

Um, no. Some of the speculations on what Muslims are going to be doing in heaven are rather disturbing, and these are by MODERN Islamic scholars, and all they seem to be thinking about is how beautiful(they think about some other rather disturbing topics I'd rather not bring up as well) these virgins are, and other um.... unusual ideas of how their own bodies will be in heaven.

It's an old joke, kinda....

After getting killed by Seal Team 6, Osama made his way
to the pearly gates. There, he is greeted by George Washington.

"How dare you attack the nation I helped conceive!" yells Mr.
Washington, slapping Osama in the face.

Patrick Henry comes up from behind. "You wanted to end the
Americans' liberty, so they gave you death!" Henry punches
Osama on the nose.

James Madison comes up next, and says "This is why I allowed
the Federal government to provide for the common defense!"
He drops a large weight on Osama's knee.

Osama is subject to similar beatings from John Randolph of
Roanoke, James Monroe, and 65 other people who have the
same love for liberty and America. As he writhes on the ground,
Thomas Jefferson picks him up to hurl him back toward the gate
where he is to be judged.

As Osama awaits his journey to his final very hot destination,
he screams "This is not what I was promised!"

An angel replies "I told you there would be 72 Virginians
waiting for you. What did you think I said?"

George Washington would never slap someone in the face.

It's a joke.

I had something to say about what George Washington WOULD do, but I think I would be modded for it.

I think OBP's point is that Washington was a gentleman, and wrote a book on civil conduct.

A SIDE note... Prior to 1973, Texas History textbooks had two pages of information about George Washington, including a sentence that said, "George Washington was known to have a violent temper, but kept it under masterful control". AFTER 1973, there was one paragraph about GW, and the sentence was truncated to "George Washington was known to have a violent temper."

Yeah, mine was more of a joke too, but like I said, I don't want to be modded.

That, and he did not shake hands with people for hygienic reasons. I don't think he'd want to touch someone's face either.

THAT, I had not heard! Did he ever wear white stovepipe hats?

So, George Washington was a germaphobe? I guess I am in good company then.
I have a weak immune system, so it's actually dangerous for me to expose myself to anything that isn't absolutely necessary.

No, but his wig was white.

Maybe not, but even without one, he is said to have had a prophetic vision of a future USA when it would be in peril.


(In case you missed it, that was your cue to start mocking George Washington)

So?

(In case you missed it, that was your cue to start mocking George Washington)

I see nothing to mock.
