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