When he was at table with them, he took the bread. He blessed the bread, and broke it, and gave it to them. And their eyes were opened and they recognized him!(Luke 24:13-35)

Stupid questions

I was giving a presentation the other day and finished up by asking if there were any questions.  As happens every time, someone raised their hand and said “This is kind of a stupid question, but…..”  It always reminds me of the old adage “The only stupid question is the one that wasn’t asked.”  But I did find some contenders for “Stupidest Question of All-Time”.    The nominees are:

10-Why is Grape Nuts cereal called that, when it contains neither grapes, nor nuts?

 
 
 
9-If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a song about him?

8-If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

7-If an orange is orange, why isn't a lime called a green or a lemon called a yellow?
 

6-If a cat always lands on its feet, and buttered bread always lands butter side down, what would happen if you tied buttered bread on top of a cat?

5-What color would a smurf turn if you choked it?

4-If a kid refuses to sleep during nap time, are they guilty of resisting a rest?

3-If laughter is the best medicine, who's the idiot who said they 'died laughing'?

2-If the #2 pencil is the most popular, why's it still #2?

 
 
 
 
 
1-If pro and con are opposites, wouldn't the opposite of progress be congress?  (See #8 above--these categories are related)
