4. Baptismal certificate, sometimes. But Pagans are either born right the first time...
Edited on Mon Jul-27-09 01:06 AM by Hekate
... or, conversely, born again and again and again.

15. Born Again Christians Are Born Twice
The first birth is a physical birth. The second birth is a spiritual or metaphysical rebirth. A person is born of the water (his or her mother's womb) and of the spirit (faith).

If you're really interested I can elaborate.

18. I was just thinking maybe there's a secret ceremony...
Something like you get all your relatives, friends and neighbors together, put on a bald cap, strip bare ass, and dive through a big hairy vagina made out of old lady garage sale wigs and used inner tubes. Then they haul you up by the legs and someone dressed up like a doctor spanks your bare ass until you cry.

I might have it all wrong though, but that's just how I always envisioned it.

21. Nah
It's just a metaphysical rebirth. Your character changes or hopefully changes.

6. I like to ask the anti-abortion folks if their conception date is on their
birth certificate or do they have a certificate of conception and if they celebrate the conception day over their birthday.

7. And also
does the time and place, front or back seat , need to be entered on the pink slip of the car in which they were conceived.

9. Excellent.
All I remembered, allowing for the fact I'm UK , was an old one liner from one of your comedians about the guy who was born in Chevrolet.

I'll sure remember your one now. :thumbsup:

10. Oh, my God!
You may have just found me a loophole! See, when I was a gullible child, I accepted Jesus into my heart and became saved and baptized in a Southern Baptist church. Nowadays, I'm a practicing Wiccan and imagining myself getting stuck with those losers was concerning. But, if there's no acceptable birth certificate, then there is no contract, now is there?

You made my day!:evilgrin:

14. There Are Many Good Folks Who Call Themselves "Born Again"
Edited on Mon Jul-27-09 05:25 AM by DemocratSinceBirth
I don't think you mean to suggest that Dr. Martin Luther King, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Al Gore, and Jimmy Carter, to name a few are or were "losers".

26. The Problem Is When You Start Shooting Indiscrimininately You Might End Up Shooting A Friend
Edited on Mon Jul-27-09 08:11 AM by DemocratSinceBirth
I have no problem reconciling my Christianity and my progressive beliefs nor does or did President Obama, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Jimmy Carter, and Dr. King for starters.

30. God has a sense of humor
You need to try to find your's, so you can be more godlike.

BTW, there isn't anything wrong with the question. It is a valid question and some religions do provide the certificate - it may just be a baptismal certificate, but it memorializes the date that one is born again into faith.
