Did you notice the fools kept singing even after the poor thing fell?

4. "Lo, it is easier to pass through a camel ... "
"... than for the Eye of a Needle to enter into the Township of West Palm Beach."

Amen!

5. Camels didn't evolve to walk in pagents
They evolved to walk in the desert, where water is as valuable as gold

Naturally, an artificially AC'd megatheater would prove too much for said camel

Those folks are all lucky the camel didn't spit

6. I say this as a (former) southern Baptist
The camel was just doing god's work.

Glad the camel is okay.

17. As another former Southern Baptist I say that the camel is a
backslider.

He can bring his sorry humps back to church next Sunday and recommit his life to Jesus.

14. Perhaps a large mammal that walks miles and miles over arid terrain.....
..... shouldn't be yanked around in a confined space to entertain churchgoers, n'est-ce pas?

18. Palm Beach - Isn't that where Limbaugh hides out? Thank God he didn't fall on the parishoners.
Of course, to do so, he would have to leave his compound and actually be seen in public. And that, he will never do.

So most are safe, his soon to be ex-fourth-wife will cash in like the others, and Elton John is disgraced.

At least the camel is OK.

22. Yep, Palm Beach -- across the Intercoastal Waterway from WEST Palm Beach...
Either way, you needn't worry about blubberbutt showing up at a Christmas Pageant and squashing 'em squishy -- so far as I know, there's no mention in the Bible of the Three Wise Men riding giant walruses into Jerusalem.
