A little "à propos" joke sent in my James... ;-)

The Christian Bear

An atheist was taking a walk through the woods, 

admiring all that the "accident of evolution" had 

created. "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. As 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 and saw that the bear 

was closing in on him. He tried to run even faster, 

so scared that tears were coming to his eyes.

He looked over his shoulder again and the bear was 

even closer. His heart was pumping frantically as 

he tried to run even faster, but he tripped and fell 

on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up and 

saw the bear right on top of him, raising his paw 

to kill him. At that instant he cried out "Oh my God!"

Just then, time stopped. The bear froze, the forest 

was silent, the river even stopped moving. A bright 

light shone upon the man, and a voice came out of 

the sky saying, "You deny my existence all of these 

years, teach others I don't exist and even credit my 

creation to a cosmic accident, and now do you expect 

me to help you out of this predicament? Am I to count

you as a Believer?"

The atheist, ever so proud, looked into the light and 

said, "It would be rather hypocritical to ask to be a

Christian after all these years, but could you make 

the bear a Christian?"

"Very well," said the voice.

The light went out, the river ran, the sounds of the 

forest continued and the bear put his paw down. The 

bear then brought both paws together, bowed his

head and said, "Lord, I thank you for this bounty for 

which I am about to receive." 

Thanks James ;-)
