My favourite joke in the Bible:
2 Kings 2:
[23] And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
[24] And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
Now if Joel "Gums" Osteen told
that funny story, there would be a whole audience of knee-slappin going on. Instead he deviates from the Word of the KJV 1611 into some trite blonde drivel.
