Jesus, get back to work
by Anonymous at 2:55 PM
It is a known historical fact that Jesus Christ was a carpenter, but nowhere is it documented how good he was at his craft. These days, we all know how hard it is to find a good carpenter; you want to find someone who will be quick, good, and not too costly. But that is why it’s my theory that Jesus could not have been all that good.
I should rephrase. He was probably good (if you’re the son of God, chances are you can swing a mean hammer), but he probably had a tough time finishing the job and showing up on time. Between the dinners and the speeches, not to mention the 40 days in the desert, how much work could he have gotten done? Honestly, if my carpenter skips out on me for 40 straight days, he’s got a prayer. Hahaha, a prayer. That’s funny.
