    Okay, this is an old one, but it fits today . . .

    A guy punches a Baptist, a Pentecostal, and a Christian Scientist in the nose. Someone comes along and asks each of them, “Would you like some help for your broken nose?

    The Baptist says, “Sure, this is just one of God’s trials.” The Pentecostal says, “No, thanks, God will heal it.” The Christian Scientist says, “What broken nose?”

    Why am I reminded of this old chestnut today? Just thinking that it would have been interesting if French gymnast Samir Ait was a Christian Scientist. He could have simply said, “What broken leg?”

    :chairfall:

    (Okay, it's an inside joke if you don't know what Christian Scientists believe about illness or who Samir Ait is. Think of it as a chance for you to do some research.)

    I understand that this is the second time this has happened to him, the first being just before the London Olympics. I don't know how these religions would interpret that other than "No medals for you."
