I do love a good joke. Especially when it pokes fun at sacred cows. Like religion. I believe that you have to be able to laugh at yourself. Because, dang it, somebody else will be so you might as well yourself. So, in that line, I have been saving Pagan jokes culled from the internet for some years.
