You left your dead husband in his recliner for 3 days before calling the county coroner.
Well, this one reminded me of something. (Not a joke.) I had a friend I knew at Prin who became a CS nurse. Her father died in his home while she was there. She (of course) kept praying for quite some time after his heart stopped. By the time she called the coroner, the police came too because they were so suspicious that she had not called anyone while her father was dying, or for a few hours after he died. She was almost arrested.

Mollyjosey,
Bless you, you are soooooo funny, you made my day, maybe even my week! I laughed till the tears ran down my cheeks! In fact 5 minutes later I am still laughing. I wish I knew someone I could share this with, but only another former CSist would get it!
Bless you and keep on laughing! We need more of it. I'm good at laughing, not so good at telling. I am the dark humor one. Have you watched the video on YouTube . com called Healed by Christian Science? It is very funny, a bit dark, but funny indeed. Gives a whole new meaning to "high-five" . Check it out.
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord,
no more CS 4 me

| Dear no more CS for me, Thanks so much for your response to my "joke"! I'm so glad that it gave you a good laugh! It was encouraging reading what you wrote since that was my first time posting anything at all and I'm still getting into the swing of things.  I will most definitely check out the video on YouTube that you mentioned. Thank you for that suggestion. I love to find any humor that I can about CS at this time (dark or light humor), so I really appreciate it! Thanks again and God bless, mollyjosey

No sincere CSist would even think of antivirus software. But then there are some that are still so stuck in mortal mind that they haven't the faith that God can do what Norton or Macafee can do so I think some of them sneak off and have someone outside the family install it. But they live the rest of their lives feeling guilty and ashamed of their lack of faith.

Hi all a u former C. S. geniuses, Hearts on you this really, really fine day! It's the day after Easter and Jesus is alive. Bless you all!
Here's one I have to wonder about, it's not a joke, but seems kind of funny to me.
"Back about 30 years ago people were quipping all the time about "Do real men eat quiche?" and stuff like that.... Today I saw a cute one on Twitter ... "Real girls do real things" which struck me as pretty clever. But then again, to a CS practitioner what do real girls get to do that is real? If I made a coat out of a deer hide could I tell people it was real leather or would I have to say "Well, although matter is unreal, this coat is made up of error called imaginary leather, but it is not actually fake leather like pvc or plastic". When I dye my hair black for Halloween, do I get to say my real hair color is blond? Or, since man is not material, he is spiritual and flesh is just a lie, then am I lying about saying I am a really a real blond? Can we say "Oh that was real cool" ?? Or, does it make it better if they say "really cool" instead of "real cool"? Does adding the "Y" to the word "real" make us less sinful? Does using the word "real" real judiciously get the healing to come real fast? Or did I say a bad, like should I have said "really" fast? If so, how much faster would the healing come? Can any of this be measured? And if so, how many mis-uses of the word real does one have to engage in before he brings on cancer? or heart problems? or high blood sugar? But then again if those diseases aren't real, I guess I should be able to say "Real" about anything I want and it should't cause sickness since sickness isn't real in the first place. If I said I ran real far, did I or didn't I ? I guess not since my feet aren't real. And that begs another question, if my feet aren't real, are my shoes real? I suppose not since they are material. But then why am I working so hard to earn (UNREAL MONEY) to buy them? I don't get it. I am so confused. Would someone please help sort me out? I really, really, really do need help on this. Just askin'....."
