[QUOTE="Ambarsaria, post: 140975, member: 14194"] Jokes are a question of taste. We can all laugh with taste or be crude and insensitive by ignorance (forgiveable) or by design and mal-intent (the worst kind and often used in Hindi cinema by showing pretent Sardar characters in stereotype roles and stupid Bhangra and dance movements and badly tied dastars, this disgusts me as it shows control of Hindi cinema and its mis-use against minorities). Now to the question of jokes here is one perhaps many may have heard before. I will write it in two versions with one Christian and one Sikh as it will also kind of reflect and flag religious dichotomy. Christian Version: [INDENT][I]Great floods are starting to enter a town with mostly Christian residents. A man is standing in the town square with water knee deep. People are evacuating and they suggest he move out with them to higher ground. He says he will not move and utters "Jesus will sa[/I]ve me". The flood waters keep rising. Now the waters are waist high. A brave soul comes by and request that he join them to a higher ground. The man refuses and says ,[I]"Jesus will sa[/I]ve me". The waters keep rising and now chest high almost to his neck. A man in a little dingy comes by and request he hop in and join him to escape the flood. The man resists and says [I]"Jesus will save me". The man drowns. He gets to the heavens gate (I want to be kind to the man as it could be Hell's gates, who knows), he is asked "What brought him there!". The man says "Jesus did not save me". From the background he hears a sound and it seems like the voice of Jesus. The voice says, "Listen buddy, I tried to save you and I sent all these Christian helpers. You refused. What more in the name of Jesus I am supposed to do!" [/I][/INDENT]Sikh Version: [INDENT][I]Great floods are starting to enter a town in Punjab with mostly Sikh residents. A man is standing in the town square with water knee deep. [/I] [I] People are evacuating and they suggest he move out with them to higher ground. He says he will not move and utters "God will sa[/I]ve me". The flood waters keep rising. Now the waters are waist high. A brave soul comes by and request that he join them to a higher ground. The man refuses and says ,[I]"God will sa[/I]ve me". The waters keep rising and now chest high almost to his neck. A man in a little dingy comes by and request he hop in and join him to escape the flood. The man resists and says [I]"God will save me".[/I] [I] The man drowns. The departed souls are meeting at a local Dhaba (roadside delicious food joints in Punjab) he is asked "What brought him there!". The man says "God did not save him from the flood".[/I] [I] From the background he hears a sound and it seems like the voice of an old man's soul. The voice says, "Listen buddy, God's men tried to save you and God within each spoke. You refused. What more can God do!" [/I][/INDENT]Sat Sri Akal PS: Hint on the difference. [LIST] [*]Christians: [LIST] [*]Christ is in-charge of rescue and directs the followers. [/LIST] [*]Sikhism: [LIST] [*]God within each is there to help and Godliness qualities are in each whether these come to the fore or nought. [/LIST] [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
