[UUCP] Something to make you smile

[revpauld444]

Once upon a time well before anyone had heard the phrase “social
distancing,” after church services the parents were in the front and the
kids in the back seats of their pale green Prius. All, need I add,
appropriately belted. The family was on its way to see relatives in the Big
City for dinner.

Once they were well on their way, Sally turned and asked their eldest what
she learned in Religious Education that day? Jessica replied, “We learned
about Passover. It was amazing. Moses was this big guy, played football in
college. Well, he tackled the Pharaoh and knocked him down. While the
Pharaoh was getting up, Moses quickly gathered the Israelites together and
they all ran toward the river. As soon as they got there Moses had his
Corps of Engineers throw up a pontoon bridge. Then when they got across and
while the Egyptians were on the bridge, Moses called in air support and
they blew the whole thing up.”

There was a bit of silence in the car as they continued on their way.
Finally, Sally asked in a hoarse whisper, “That’s what your Sunday school
teachers taught?”

“Not really,” replied the girl. “But if I told you the story the way they
did, you’d never believe it.”
