Got the following from my son. To add to his comment: I had some problems on my first visit, so only read the first 3 judged "funniest" (of which I'd seen 2 before). But, on my second visit (today), problems seemed to have disappeared, so, with the list being fairly slow, I plowed through all of them - not just the "top 20" (10 funniest and 10 most offensive), but all 82 selected for weblishing - not divided by funny and gross, just posted as they appeared. Several were new to me which was fun but what I found *really fascinating* was the discussion following each (OK, I've not read all 82 discussions in full; missed out on speed reading when it was popular <g>).

Participants - all believers, mostly Christians (I wish I'd known about the site before the contest closed; they needed an atheist in their midst <g>) - represent so many diffferent viewpoints it's as mindboggling as it is illuminating...

And, once there, I explored a bit more of the site, beyond the jokes, and can heartily reccommend it to both believers (esp those who don't feel entirely comfortable in their skins) and to atheists alike.

My browser wouldn't show the jokes without some effort, so I don't know if
it'll work for you, but some of the funny ones are new to me, and the
offensive ones are mostly new, and truly offensive.  Wow.

...our competition to find the funniest and most offensive religious jokes, in response to the British government's proposed anti-religious hatred legislation,
is finally over. And we have two winners...
