Theologians Extend Doctrine of “Just War” To “Just Road Rage”

VATICAN CITY – Theologians from around the world meeting in a special conclave announced last night that not only is war justified under certain conditions, so is road rage.

“In order to meet the conditions for ‘just road rage,’ the driver whose conduct prompted the rage must have done something to really piss off the person who goes into the rage,” explained Monsignor Hermann Gottlieb.

“The theologians are unanimous that only the most serious conditions justify road rage, like failing to use a turn signal or driving too slow in the fast lane.”

Never invoke the gods unless you really want them to appear. It annoys them very much.
