Evolution...

Tonight at M's kindergarten graduation one of the Sunday school teachers told a cute story.

A teacher was teaching her class evolution. "Tommy," she said, "what do you see out the window?" Tommy looked and answered, "A tree." "And what do you see under the tree," she prompted. "The grass," he answered. "Now go outside and look up and tell us what you saw." So Tommy went out, looked up and returned to the classroom. "I saw the sky," he said. "Did you see God?" she asked. "No," said Tommy. "That is because God doesn't exist," she concluded.

A little girl stood up then and asked the teacher if she could ask Tommy some questions. "Tommy," she asked, "Can you still see the tree?" He nodded and then she asked, "Tommy, can you still see the grass and the sky?" "Yes," he told her. "Tommy," she asked, "Can you see our teacher?" "Yes." "Well, can you see our teachers brain?" "No," he said. She summed this up quite simply. "Then according to what we have been taught here today we can only conclude that our teacher has no brain."

(And for the record I did cry at M's graduation, but I laughed harder when our pastor asked the all the graduates what they were planning to do with the rest of their lives:)
