An atheist was taking a walk through the woods, admiring all that the accident of evolution" had created. "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 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 ran even faster, so scared that

 

tears were coming to his eyes.

 

 

 

He looked over his shoulder again, and the bear was even closer. His heart

 

was pumping frantically and he tried to run even faster. He tripped and fell

 

to 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 "Oh my God!...." Time stopped. The bear froze. The forest was silent. Even the river stopped moving.

 

 

 

As 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," the voice said.

 

 

 

The light went out. The river ran again. And the sounds of the forest

 

resumed. And then the bear dropped its right paw ........brought both paws together.... bowed its head and spoke: "Lord, for this food which I am about to receive, I am truly thankful."
