FBI warns of "Killer Teddy Bears". I heard this alert today.

The FBI does not want another Valentines Day Massacre and is warning everyone to be on the look out for those Teddy Bears that carry a Valentine Heart.

These "bad" Teddies are suspected of having a cannister which could be used as a bomb.

(We can almost laugh.)

A unidentified informant admitted there could be a rise in violent crimes at home if men used this as a excuse to come home empty handed.

The Atheist


An atheist was taking a walk through the woods,
admiring all that the "accident of evolution:" had
created. "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 charging towards him. He ran
as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his
shoulder and saw that the bear was closing. He ran
even faster, so scared that tears were coming to his
eyes.

He looked over his shoulder again, and the bear was
even closer. His heart was pumping frantically and he
tried to run even faster. He tripped and fell to the
gorund. 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.

Even the river stopped moving.

As a bright light shone upon the man, a voice came
out of the sky saying, "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," the voice said.

The light went out, the river ran again, and the
sounds of the forest resumed. And then the bear
dropped its right paw, brought both paws together,
bowed its head and spoke: "Lord, for this food which
I am about to receive, I am truly thankful."
