Christian kittens

A preacher comes upon a girl playing with a box holding a litter of new-born kittens inside. “What kind of kittens are those?”, he asked.

“They are Christian kittens”, she said. He left pleased she had Jesus in her thoughts.

Days later he saw her again. “How are your Christian kittens doing?”, he asked.

“Oh, they aren’t Christian kittens, they are Atheist”, she replied.

“I thought they were Christian kittens.” said the preacher.

“Oh, they were. But now their eyes are open!”

Got That?


If you remember how much easier it is to remember what you would rather forget than remember, than remember what you would rather remember than forget, then you can’t forget how much easier it is to forget what you would rather remember than forget, than forget what you would rather forget than remember.
