Can a Joke Relieve a Complex?

The Arabs with their Palestine complex remind me of a parallel complex:

  • A Jew, in the dictionary, is one who is descended from the ancient tribes of Judea, or one who is regarded as a descendant from that tribe. That's what it says in the dictionary, but you and I know what a Jew is: One Who Killed Our Lord... there should be a statute of limitations for that crime.
in Lenny Bruce Without Tears 1972
Of course, there was this famous joke of his about Jews killing Christ:

Not only did we kill Christ, we're going to kill him when he comes back.

No!!! If that is what you truely believe then you despirately need to have a serious talk to your pastor because you are missing some big issues.

I'm Jewish. We have Rabbis although you may be military and therefore, the term is, yes, pastor.
