Eve Chats with God
"Lord, I have a problem."
"What's the problem, Eve?"
"I
know that you created me and provided this beautiful garden and all of
these wonderful animals, as well as that hilarious snake, but I'm just
not happy."
"And why is that Eve?"
"Lord, I am lonely, and I'm sick to death of apples."
"Well, Eve, in that case, I have a solution. I shall create a man for you."
"Man? What is that Lord?"
"A
flawed creature, with many bad traits. He'll lie, cheat and be vain;
he'll give you a hard time. But he'll be bigger, faster and will like to
hunt and kill things. However, he will satisfy your physical needs. He
will revel in childish things like fighting and kicking a ball. He won't
be as smart as you, so he will also need your advice to think
properly."
"Sounds great," says Eve, with ironically raised eyebrows, "but what's the catch Lord?"
"Well,.....you can have him on one condition."
"And what's that Lord?"
"As
I said, he'll be proud, arrogant and self-admiring... so you'll have to
let him believe that I made him first. And it will have to be our
little secret…
