Atheist

Thanks to all of you who have provided thoughtful and stimulating commentary on the issue of happiness. Though I know there is a great deal more that could be said on the subject, life moves on, and so do I. Time to switch to some lighter fare. I hope the following story will help to lighten your weekend.
 

An atheist was taking a walk 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 and saw a 7 foot grizzly bear 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 looked over his shoulder again and the bear was even closer. He tripped and fell on the ground.  He rolled over to pick himself up but saw the bear right on top  of him, reaching for him with his left paw and raising his right paw to strike him.

At that instant the Atheist cried out to the Lord. Time stopped, the bear froze, the forest was silent. A bright  light shone upon the man, a voice came out of the sky, "You deny my existence for all of these years, teach others I don't exist, and even credit creation to a 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 could you make the BEAR a Christian?"

"Very well," said the voice.
 
The light went out. The sounds of the forest resumed. And then the bear dropped his right paw, brought both paws together and bowed his head and spoke:
 
"Lord, bless this food, which I am about to receive through Christ our Lord, Amen."

LOL... this is so funny!  My take on the atheist... he wasn't being modest when confronted with his hypocrisy... his pride wouldn't let him admit to God that he did, in fact, have a deep belief system that he previously wouldn't acknowledge or even take the time to explore.  All he had to do was say... uh... yeah God, that's exactly it... I guess I've been full of sh** before this because, look... here I am asking for your help... perhaps in your ultimate wisdom you could save me here... after all, how much more power will my words have after this... a reformed atheist... having a true story of how God saved me, to tell to everyone I meet in the future?

Hi Jorge,
 
Good bear!  Thank you for the chuckle.
 
I love your diversity - from an in depth study of "happiness" to an ironic Christian tale without a blip!

good entry.  I am reading the God Delusion right now.  This fella is not alone.  There are a lot of agnostics and athiests in America but they can't organize and become a political force or a critical mass.  They are like cats and can't be rounded up.  They are to independent and will not conform to authority.  Anyhow I am enjoying the read...

Jorge! I haven't stopped by here in forever! The place looks mighty nice and look at how popular you are! lol. How are you doing? I see you are keeping busy and making us laugh, cry, and contemplate the complexities of life. Well, thanks. I always enjoy reading your blogs- the way you think fascinates me.
 
Life for me is good, but stressful. I am graduating high school and a two year college so it's crazy. I guess life is always like this. I heard it gets more complicated. mmhh....oh great. I'm sure looking forward to those little times where it seems everything has stopped so you can just breathe for one sec. I don't mind that those moments are short, as long as they keep on coming every now and then.
 
I haven't rambled like this for a long time. haha...well, nice seeing you again- even if it's only on the internet, the world's online community.

hahahahahaha!   Good one!
Hmmm... I recognize that prayer and it kind of gave me the willies.  I'll try to remember it if I ever see a bear sh*tting in the woods.  There ya go; two urban myths dispelled in one felled swoop.
