NOAH, 2005! from Walt M. of South Bend, IN 08/25/05.
In the year 2005, the
Lord came unto Noah, who was now living in the United States , and
said, "Once again, the earth has become wicked and over-populated
and I see the end of all flesh before me. Build another Ark and save
two of every living thing along with a few good humans."
He gave Noah the
blueprints, saying, "You have six months to build the Ark before I
will start the unending rain for 40 days and 40 nights".
Six months later, the Lord looked down and saw Noah weeping in his
yard...but no ark. "Noah," He roared, "I'm about to start the rain!
Where is the Ark?"
"Forgive me, Lord," begged Noah. "But things have changed. I needed
a building permit. I've been arguing with the inspector about the
need for a sprinkler system. My neighbors claim that I've
violated the neighborhood zoning laws by building the Ark in my yard
and exceeding the height limitations. We had to go to the
Development Appeal Board for a decision. Then the Department of
Transportation demanded a bond be posted for the future costs of
moving power lines and other overhead obstructions, to clear the
passage for the Ark 's move to the sea. I argued that the sea would
be coming to us, but they would hear nothing of it. Getting the wood
was another problem. There's a ban on cutting local trees in order
to save the spotted owl. I tried to convince the environmentalists
that I needed the wood to save the owls. But no go!
When I started
gathering the animals, I got sued by an animal rights group. They
insisted that I was confining wild animals against their will. As
well, they argued the accommodation was too restrictive and it
was cruel and in humane to put so many animals in a confined space.
Then the EPA ruled that I couldn't build the Ark until they'd
conducted an environmental impact study on your proposed flood.
I'm still trying to
resolve a complaint with the Human Rights Commission on how many
minorities I'm supposed to hire for my building crew. Also, the
trades unions say I can't use my sons. They insist I have to hire
only Union workers with Ark building experience. To make matters
worse, the IRS seized all my assets, claiming I'm trying to leave
the country illegally with endangered species. So, forgive me,
Lord, but it would take at least ten years for me to finish this
Ark..."
Suddenly the skies cleared, the sun began to shine, and a rainbow
stretched across the sky. Noah looked up in wonder and asked, "You
mean, You're not going to destroy the world?".
"No," said the Lord. "The government beat me to it."
