A 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.
"Oh, God!" cried the atheist.
At that instant the lion Froze, the surrounding bush went quiet and a voice 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 indeed be hypocritical to change my beliefs at this point,' said the man. 'Maybe you could make the lion a Christian. That would resolve our dilemma.'
'Very well, said God.
With that everything returned to normal and the lion unfroze, dropped to his knees, bowed it's head and prayed, "Lord, for this food I'm about to receive, I'm truly grateful. Amen."
