What are you talking about? You're the one who invented "Jesus Farted".
That is entirely your creation. I wrote a poem based on a bible verse, for
use in bible study, with Christians of like mind who like to study the bible.
Most of my poems are meant to incite provocative new ways of thinking
about old ideas. Okay, so they're not for you. No worries, but when you
repeat things like "Jesus Farted", it appears you aren't familiar with text.

It's a really, really, R E A L L Y bad attempt at a joke -- even worse than the original fart joke.

Dunce is saying that since Jesus is afflicted with chronic flatulence, the children who come within smelling distance of him suffer from the stench.

I thought we were discussing Jesus' chronic flatulence.

I don't smoke pot, am familiar with the smell, and qualitative judge it to resemble the odor of a skunk.

Does farting constitute humanity in your opinion?

I think it obvious that even God must be subject to frequent bouts of flatulence. How else does one account for Will, Stinky George, Dunce, Pick, Bill Clinton, et al?

As people age, senses deteriorate. Eyesight fails,
and although you may lose your sense of smell
entirely, you'll never lose the ability to raise a stink.
Farting is a very common human act. When all
else fails, people can still makes sense of smell.

Ugh! Your attempt at humor is even more pathetic (not to mention, illogical) than Dunce's.

If one loses his sense of smell, he will not be able to still make sense/scents of it.

I know several seniors who've lost the ability to smell themselves.
That doesn't mean they don't smell. It just means they don't smell
me, and aren't particularly bothered by the fact that I am bothered
by the fact that they smell, because they're just old fucks who don't
give a fuck how I smell so long as I do what the fuck I'm there to do.

To say the least.
The first time one posts a famous quote, it has the effect of making him appear to be somewhat well-read; his presumed level of literacy being in obverse proportion to the degree of said quotation's fame.

The tenth time one posts the same famous quote, it fosters the presumption that said quote forms the totality of his literary education.
