Moses looks like a Gary Larson character in The Far Side - perhaps the cartoonist was inspired?
I enjoyed those cartoons/books (along with Calvin and Hobbes). The humour was dark at times.

Why is this world of stupidity, cruelty and banality so popular and so funny? The reason, I think, is that it confirms our deep suspicions of technological progress. It presents a world of evolution without progress, science without culture and calamity without sadness. One of my favourite cartoons depicts two anglers in an outboard. In the distance four sinister mushroom clouds are rising into the sky. “I’ll tell you what this means, Norm,” one says, “no size restrictions and screw the limit.” In other words, technological mastery has failed to civilise us. We are still subject to the most primitive and debased forms of selfishness.

I used to love those. My parents had one of the coffee table books lol. They’re bizarre but have a profound truth at the same time.

I feel like this is an old-school Borscht Belt type joke lol
It does a bit… Oy vey! :squintlol:

The winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell.
And great was its fall.
Matthew 7:27

The guy in this funny picture looks like he is thinking, “why would this happen, my house?!!”
“It is no accident that this happened, sir, these are naturally occurring events on islands; and your house is built on sand.”


Not sure if the picture selection (to represent the title of this entry, If God Exists Why Do Bad Things Happen, was intentional; but the visual representation speaks volumes to this title. In short the entry discusses how "God allows bad things to happen to us to cure our spiritual sickness."

Our tribulations are sometimes a result of our own chosen behaviours. But hopefully throughout the challenges/sickness we are to heal and to grow into better individuals; that is which is pleasing to our Lord, Jesus Christ.

Personally, this picture (as it relates to the entry title) is funny because the visual depicts a foolish [man’s] failure.
Who would build, that type of house, on sand AND on an island with naturally occurring events?

But man builds on land with natural occurring events, and calls the events disasters or accidents –to avoid taking accountability for the human error/ self-will. As is the same who hears the Word of God and "decided to not serve God because of their pride...."

Back to Matthew 7 : 24 -27
Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

I am against drugs. They turn people into addicts, broken shadows of themselves. It is truly horrible.
Same thing happened in China during the late 19th century and early 20th century.

Not funny or clever. This is the Ladies Forum “Humor Thread”… You think this picture is funny?

Edit: Go post that picture in the “JQ Thread.” Maybe learn something about opioids and China.
