Parable of the Day
3rd July 2018
Hillary Clinton goes on a fact-finding visit to Israel. While she is on a tour of Jerusalem she suffers a heart attack and dies.The undertaker tells the Americans accompanying her, ‘You can have her shipped home for $50,000, or you can bury her here, in the Holy Land for just $100’.
The Americans go into a corner to discuss for a few minutes. They return with their answer to the undertaker and tell him they want Hillary shipped home.
The undertaker is puzzled and asks, ‘Why would you spend $50,000 to ship her home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only $100? The American diplomats reply, ‘Long ago a man died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead. We just can’t take that risk.’
With thanks to the Ace of Spades, who is always worth reading.
