An Atheist in 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 bear
>>>>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

>>>>
>>>>"Lord bless this food, which I am about to receive from thy bounty
