An atheist walking through the woods, enjoying the sights and sounds of
nature.
As he was walking alongside the river he heard a rustling
in the bushes
behind him.
He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly charge towards
him.
The atheist ran as fast as he could up the path.
He looked over his shoulder and saw that the bear was
closing in on him.
He looked over his shoulder again, and the bear was even
closer.
He tripped and fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick
himself up but
saw the bear right on top of him, reaching for him with his
left paw and
raising his right paw to strike him. At that instant the
Atheist cried
out: "Oh God! Help me!..."
Time stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.
As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came out of
the sky: "This
is God! You done there! For your whole life you have denied
my very
existence but now because your life is in danger you ask
for
help?!
"Well, yes." replied the atheist.
Well, I will help you but you must promise to become a
Christian and
follow a Christian life and example."
The atheist replied, "How about this God? I will remain an
atheist but YOU
make the BEAR a CHRISTIAN."
"As you wish." replied God.
The light went out.
The sounds of the forest resumed.
And then the bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws
together and
bowed his head and spoke:
"Lord, bless this food, which I am about to receive from
thy bounty
through Christ our Lord, Amen. "
I think God will have a sense of humor:)
