An oldie, but still worth a chuckle...
In a small Texas town there was a Nativity Scene that showed great skill and talent
had gone into creating it.
One small feature bothered me. The three wise men were wearing firemens' helmets.
Totally unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left. At a Quik Stop store
on the edge of town, I asked the lady behind the counter about the helmets.
She exploded into a rage, yelling at me, "You darn Yankees never do read the Bible!"
I assured her that I did, but simply couldn't recall anything about firemen in the Bible.
She jerked her Bible from behind the counter, ruffled through some pages, and finally
jabbed her finger at a passage.
Sticking it in my face she said, with a smirk, "See, it says right here, The three wise
men came from afar."
