Ha!

I'm currently in a Pharmacy Tech training program. The instructror has said that he will not allow the mark of the beast as part of any of our answers.

When we get a calculation that results in 0.666, we must change the last 6 to a 7. If anyone out there dies in a hospital due to an incorrect dosage, just blame it on the beast.

Hi Steve,

Your instructor is right: 2/3 rounds to .667, not .666! (Of course, nobody is going to die from a < 0.15% error in dosage anyway.)

Patti,

How about
* 66.6 MPG - mileage of the beast's new hybrid car
* Heinz 666 - ketchup of the beast

Plain Patti: thanks for inserting a humor thread onto this forum...."THEY" are much needed on all these religious website/threads!!! 2 years ago a dear friend of mine who has registered on here but doesnst post started same on the SDAnet, and it was instrumental in attracting MANY searchers because it was a RELIEF to the dead seriousness of the rest of the forum!!! Not unlike the need for a jester in the court of kings! I wonder who the comedian is in the scheme of the Creator? Or is that also a no-no on here?BTW,I just copied the 666 thingie onto the aToday forum. so sue me ;-))))

How to deal with differences in the Adventist Church
By (anonymous)
(From the Walla Walla College Collegian, March 30, 2000. Copied with permission.)

Walking across a bridge last Sabbath afternoon, I noticed a guy who looked like he was ready to jump off. I thought I'd try to stall him until the authorities showed up (or at least until I had time to put film in my camera).

"Don't jump!" I said.

"Why not?" he said. "Nobody loves me."

"God loves you," I said. "Do you believe in God?"

"Yes, I believe in God," he said.

"Oh, good." I said. "Are you Christian, Jewish, Islamic, Buddhist, or Hindu?"

"Christian," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "Are you Protestant or Catholic?"

"Protestant," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "What kind of Protestant?"

"Seventh-day Adventist," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "Are you a Conservative, Evangelical, or Liberal Seventh-day Adventist?"

"Conservative-Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "KJV-Only Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist or NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist?"

"NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "Cinema-Attending NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist or Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist?"

"Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh day Adventist or Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist?"

"Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "Vegetarian Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist or Lacto-Ovo-Chicko-Fisho Vegetarian Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist?"

"Lacto-Ovo-Chicko-Fisho Vegetarian Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "Anti-Women-in-Ministry (except Ellen White) Lacto-Ovo-Chicko Fisho Vegetarian Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist or Pro-Women-in-Ministry Lacto-Ovo-Chicko-Fisho Vegetarian Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist?"

"Anti-Women-in-Ministry (except Ellen White) Lacto-Ovo-Chicko-Fisho Vegetarian Non Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist," he said.

"Me, too!" I said. "Literally-inspired-by-God-Bible Anti-Women-in-Ministry (except Ellen White) Lacto-Ovo-Chicko-Fisho Vegetarian Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist or Thought-inspired-by-God Bible Anti-Women-in Ministry (except Ellen White) Lacto-Ovo-Chicko-Fisho Vegetarian Non-Dancing Video Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist?"

"Thought-inspired-by-God-Bible Anti-Women-in-Ministry (except Ellen White) Lacto Ovo-Chicko-Fisho Vegetarian Non-Dancing Video-Only NIV Conservative Evangelical Seventh-day Adventist," he said.

"Errrrr, you heretic!!!!!" I said. And I pushed him over.

There was this angel flying around and He came up
to this Gypsy and he said

Angel- Hay Gypsy I have somthing for you.

Gypsy - Yes what is it you have for me.

Angel - It is a Commandment.

Gypsy - Yes what knid of Commandment.

Angel - Thou shalt to steal.

Gypsy - No thank you that is what us gypsy's do
you can take your commandment and go somewhere
else where.

So the angel flew around until He came upon a
French man sitting on a park bench. The angel
went up to the French man and said.

Angel- Hay French man I have somthing for you.

French man - Yes what is it you have for me.

Angel - It is a Commandment.

French man - Yes what knid of Commandment is it.

Angel - Thou shalt to commit adultry.

French man - No thank you that is what us French
men do you can take your commandment and go
somewhere else where.

So the angel flew around until he found this
little Jewish Rabbi. so he went up to the Rabbi
and said.

Angel- Hay Rabbi I have somthing for you.

Rabbi - Yes what is it you have for me.

Angel - It is a Commandment.

Rabbi - How much will it cost?

Angel - Nothing.

Rabbi - Ok, I will take Ten of them.

When I was taking my English minor at Northwest Nazarene College we had a test in one of our literature classes in which the teacher included a question: "Which of the following quotes about baseball are not in the Bible?"

Unfortunately, I only remember two of them: A. In the Big Inning B. And where are the nine?

One professor I had in seminary, a Dr. Walther, required us students to sign in on an attendance sheet to prove we had too sat through his lecture. But when I signed my name "Harry Tick" he found out some way -- there was a hairy rat next desk over, I swear -- and gave me a D for the class. And boy did I ever not do that again!

You know, of course, that Jesus and His disciples went to the Upper Room in a Honda?

Yep. They were all in one Accord.
