The Atheist Pays
There was an atheist living next door to an old
woman who was a Christian.
Everyday he could hear her praying and praising God for all of the things He had
done for her. One day the old woman fell on hard times and had no food in her
house.
The atheist overheard her praying to God to please send her some food. So, off
the atheist goes to the grocery store, thinking he was gonna fix the old gal
once and for all. He bought two bags of groceries and, after placing them on her
porch, he rang her bell and then hid in some nearby bushes.
When the old woman came out of her house, she saw the bags of groceries and
started giving thanks to the Lord for sending her the food.
At that point, the happy atheist JUMPED from the bushes and shouted, "AH-HA! The
Lord didn't send you those groceries! It was I who put them there!!!!"
Without a pause, the old woman shot back, "PRAISE YOU DEAR LORD. NOT ONLY DID
YOU SEND THE GROCERIES, YOU MADE THE DEVIL PAY FOR THEM!"
