"Creation of Woman"
One day, after a near eternity in the Garden of Eden, Adam
calls out to
God: "Lord, I have a problem"
"What's the problem, Adam?", God replies.
"Lord, I know you created me and have provided for me and
surrounded me
with this beautiful garden and all of these wonderful animals,
but I'm just
not happy"
"Why is that, Adam?", comes the reply from the heavens.
"Lord, I know you created this place for me, with all this
lovely food and
all of the beautiful animals, but I am lonely"
"Well Adam, in that case I have the perfect solution. I
shall create a
'woman' for you"
"What's a 'woman', Lord?"
"This 'woman' will be the most intelligent, sensitive,
caring, and
beautiful creature I have ever created. She will be so
intelligent that she
can figure out what you want
before you want it. She will be so sensitive and caring that she
will know
your every mood and how to make you happy.Her beauty will rival
that of the
heavens and
earth. She will unquestioningly care for your every need and
desire. She
will be the perfect companion for you", replies the heavenly
voice.
"Sounds great"
"She will be, but this is going to cost you, Adam"
"How much will this 'woman' cost me Lord?", Adam
replies.
"She'll cost you your right arm, your right leg, an eye, an
ear, and your
left testicle"
Adam ponders this for some time, with a look of deep thought and
concern on
his face. Finally Adam says to God, "Ehhh, what can I get
for a rib?"
The rest, as they say, is history..............
