1. He went into His Father's business
2. He lived at home until he was 33
3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his Mother was
sure He was God

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian:
1. He talked with His hands
2. He had wine with His meals
3. He used olive oil

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was a Californian:
1. He never cut His hair
2. He walked around barefoot all the time
3. He started a new religion

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus as an American Indian:
1. He was at peace with nature
2. He ate a lot of fish
3. He talked about the Great Spirit

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish:
1. He never got married.
2. He was always telling stories.
3. He loved green pastures.

But the most compelling evidence of all........Proof that Jesus was a woman:
1. He fed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was virtually no food.
2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn't get it.
3. And even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was still work to do.

The funny thing is that I'm Catholic and I still found myself laughing, especially with the 'Jesus is Black' idea.
(he didn't get a fair trial) xD
They are extremes.
It's simple, juvinile humour based on stereotypes, but works so damn well, it certaintly brought a smile to my face.
Bear in mind that it questions all kinds of races and cultures, so the 'love' is evenly spread, there's a good chance that you'll chuckle at one of the examples in all too cringing familiarity, rather than questioning the 'Jesus' aspect.
But humour is subjective, so I guess it won't be everyone's cup of tea. ^^
