"An official at the zoo said: "The man shouted 'God will save me, if he
exists', lowered himself by a rope into the enclosure, took his shoes off
and went up to the lions."
The man got his answer when an affronted lioness grabbed him by the throat
and killed him in front of horrified visitors. The official helpfully
explained: "A lioness went straight for him, knocked him down and severed
his carotid artery."
Mike Palij asks: Does rational empiricism trump religious faith again? ;-)
Jim Guinee says: Or maybe biblical ignorance:
Matthew 4:5-7 Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on
the highest point of the temple. "If you are the Son of God," he said,
"throw yourself down. For it is written:
'He will command his angels concerning you,
and they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'
Jesus answered him, "It is also written: 'Do not put the Lord your God to
the test.'"
