An oldie for sure, but it's still worth a chuckle...
In a small southern 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
firemen's helmets.
Totally unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left.
At a Quik Stop on the edge of town, I asked the lady behind the counter
about the helmets. She exploded into a rage, yelling at me, "You stupid
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 and ruffled through some
pages, and finally jabbed her finger at a passage.
Sticking it in my face she said "See? It says right here, The three wise
men came from afar."
