Oh well!

An atheist
and a believer
both become
marooned on
a desert island
with no rescue
in sight.
The believer
prays for
divine intervention,
the atheist builds
a raft out of logs
and sails away
from the island.
The believer
now dying
from starvation
and thirst
is still praying.

I forget who said that looking for the divine is like looking for a non existant black cat in a very darkened room. The believer finds it.
I like your whimsy here.

My favourite comedian is Dave Allen, a master at storytelling and I loved his jokes and sketches sending up the Catholic Church, just so clever. Thank you Ken.

I agree excellent.

I so enjoyed this. Very entertaining Andrew. Being an atheist certainly paid dividends here. Well done.

Thank you Chris and it is a mystery to have will power vs Devine and how it pans out, logic and commonsense wins.
