The Bible in a nutshell

A child was asked to write a book report on the Bible. Here is some of what he wrote:
In the beginning, which occurred near the start, there was nothing but God, darkness, and some gas. The Bible says,'' The Lord thy God is one'', but I think he must be a lot older than that. Anyway, God said,'' Give me a light!'' and someone did. Then God made the world.
He split Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve were naked, but they weren't embarrassed because mirrors hadn't been invented yet. Adam and Eve disobeyed God by eating one bad apple, so they were driven out of the Garden of Eden. Not sure what they were driven in though, because they didn't have cars. Adam and Eve had a son, Cain, who hated his brother as long as he was Abel.
After the Old Testament came the New Testament. Jesus is the star of The New. He was born in Bethlehem in a barn.( I wish I had been born in a barn too, because my Mum is always saying to me,'' Close the door! Were you born in a barn?'' It would be nice to say, ''As a matter of fact, I was'' ) During his life, Jesus had many arguments with sinners like the Pharisees and the Democrats.
Jesus also had twelve opossums. The worst one was Judas Asparagus. Judas was so evil that they named a terrible vegetable after him.

Hi Spartacus0 -
have you ever tried to explain the Bible to a child? It comes out a bit like the above.
Lucy has been asking me what comes first?The chicken or the egg?We decided the egg came first cos everybody needs to start as a baby and then grow up.
ElizabethNever be bullied into silence.
Never allow yourself to be made a victim.
Accept no ones definition of your life
Define yourself........
