I'm afraid that if we bail out the US Government we'll lose our IRS status as a charitable organization.

So, basically:

Breaking news: Mormon Church reverts doctrine of being a world religion by focusing on government nearest HQ.

You realize the link is a joke?

If this is supposed to be funny, I'm not understanding the humor.

Sorry you didn't like it. Apparently, it's taking up half the joke thread now.

It's not a matter of not liking it. It's a matter of not understanding the comment. What did you mean? Were you trying to be funny? Were you trying to make a serious point? Were you trying to be off the wall? Putting it into the context of another joke doesn't clarify anything for me:

POSTER: So these two guys die and talk to Peter at the Pearly Gates ...

ZENO_X: Pretty IRONIC, considering we claim not to believe that people "talk to Peter" or in any "Pearly Gates"!!

VORT: :confused:

POSTER: A man walks into a bar...

ZENO_X: Pretty IRONIC, considering we believe in the Word of Wisdom!!!

VORT: :confused:

POSTER: So here's this joke, though like most jokes, it is counterfactual and not based in literal reality...

ZENO_X: Pretty IRONIC, considering we believe you should tell the truth!!!

VORT: :confused:

Perhaps you see my difficulty.

Nah, not that at all. I just didn't understand it. No big deal.

Oh, okay. "Humor" (at which I apparently suck on forums) can be a good way to make points. It's a good thing this isn't true. I think that was my point. Toodles.
