Atheist

"An atheist was walking through the bush when a lion jumped into his path.

The man turned to flee, but tripped over a root and went sprawling.

In seconds the cat was standing over him.

“O God!” cried the atheist.

At that instance the lion froze, the surrounding bush went quiet and a voice boomed from heaven, “You deny my existence for all these years and credit creation to a cosmic accident.“

“Now, in your time of need, you cry out for help. Am I now to count you as a believer?“

“It would indeed be hypocritical to change my beliefs at this point,” said the man.

Maybe you could make the lion a Christian, this would resolve our dilemma.”

“Very well,” said God.

With that everything returned to normal and the lion unfroze, dropped to its knees, bowed its head and prayed, “Lord, for the food that I am about to receive, I am truly grateful. Amen.”"
