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. 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 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: "Oh my God!"
Time stopped. The bear
froze. The forest was silent.
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," 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, bowed his head and spoke:
"Lord, bless this food, which I am about to receive
from thy bounty through
Christ our Lord, Amen."

I don't know, personally I think it wouldn't hurt to come up with a new joke every few thousand years or so.

I would have asked to make the bear a vegetarian.
