AN ATHEIST IN THE WOODS


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. He saw a 7-foot grizzly charge towards him.
He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder saw that
the bear was closing in on him.


He looked over his shoulder again, the bear was even closer. He tripped fell
on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw that the bear was
right on top of him, reaching for him with his left paw raising his right
paw to strike him. At that instant 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 creation to cosmic accident." "Do you expect me to help you out of
this predicament? Am I to count 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 perhaps You could
make the BEAR a Christian"?


"Very Well," said the voice.


The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And the bear dropped
his right paw, brought both paws together, bowed his head spoke:


"Lord bless this food, which I am about to receive from thy bounty through
Christ our Lord, Amen."
