Anatheist was taking a walk through the woods. What majestic trees! What powerfulrivers! What beautiful animals, he said to himself. As he continuedwalking alongside the river he heard a rustling in the bushes. Turning to look,he saw a 7 foot grizzly charging towards him. He ran as fast as he couldup the path. Looking over his shoulder he saw that the bear was closing in onhim. His heart was pumping frantically and he tried to run even faster. Hetripped and fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw thebear raising his paw to take a swipe at him. At that instant the atheist criedout: 'Oh my God!...' Time stopped, The bear froze, The forest was silent. Itwas then that a bright light shone upon the man and a voice came out of the skysaying: You deny my existence for all of these years, teach others I don'texist and even credit creation to a cosmic accident. Do you expect me tohelp you out of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer? The atheistlooked directly into the light. It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly askyou to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps, could you make the BEAR aChristian? Very well, said the voice. The light went out, and the sounds of theforest resumed. And then the bear lowered his paw, bowed his head and spoke:Lord, bless this food which I am about to receive and for which I am trulythankful, Amen.
