A man of the cloth was seated next to a little girl on an airplane and he turned
to her and said, "Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up
a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total
stranger, "What would you want to talk about?"
" Oh, I don't know," said the holy man, "How about why
there is God, or Heaven or Hell, or life after death?" as he smiled
smugly.
"OK," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but
let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a goat all eat the same
stuff - grass. Yet a goat excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat
patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?"
The holy man visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about
it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to
discuss why there is God, or Heaven or Hell, or life after death, when you
don't know shit?"
And then she went back to
reading her book.
