A man goes to the doctor...

[Todd Erickson]

The doctor says "I'm sorry, we've run all of the tests, and it's really bad news. It's inoperable brain cancer."

The man is utterly stricken and heartbroken, and squats, head in his hands.

The doctor says "you know, since you really don't have a chance of living anyway, you might as well participate in this new experimental surgery we have. We can swap a new brain into your body."

The man says "Um...really?"

The doctor beams and waxes eloquent on his topic. "...yes, we even have three fresh brains today for you to choose from. The first option is the brain of an Episcopal."

"why would that make a difference?"

"Why, you'd be very smart, but you would never be entirely sure what you believed. That would be $500,000."

"Wow. Okay, what's my next option?"

"Next, we have the brain of a member of the Church of the Nazarene. It's only $300,000. You won't be as smart, but no matter what you believe, you'll always know that you're right."

"And what's my third option?"

"The brain of a Charasmatic. It's worth $1,000,000."

"Wow, why so expensive?"

"Because it's never been used."

[David Graham]

A couple of "more reasonable" charasmatic folk I know might even find this funny...... as they often say to me about some of the stuff they've heard by way of "words of knowledge"given to them.... "You're kidding right"?!

Are you sure you didn't get the last two mixed up?
