An Atheist was walking through the woods...
"What majestic trees!
What powerful rivers!
What beautiful animals!" he said to himself.
As he was walking alongside the river he heard a
rustling in the bushes behind him.
He turned to look and he saw a 7 foot Grizzly
charge toward him.
He looked again, and the bear was even closer. He
tripped and fell to 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 moment the Atheist cried out "Oh my God!..."
Time stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.
As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came
out of the sky,
"You deny my existence for all these years, teach
others I don't exist, and even credit the creation to a cosmic
accident.
Do you expect me to help you out of this
predicament?".
"Am I to count on you as a believer?".
The atheist looked directly into the light, "It
would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask you to treat me as a
Christian now, but could you perhaps make the BEAR a Christian?".
"Very Well", said the voice.
The light went out. The sounds of the forest
resumed.
The bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws
together, bowed his head and spoke,
"Lord bless this food, which we are about to
receive from thy bounty through Christ our Lord. Amen"...
