A child was asked to write a book report on the entire Bible. Here is what was written:

The Children's Bible in a Nutshell

In the beginning, which occurred near the start, there was 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 the Adam and made 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 from 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. Pretty soon all of the early people died off, except for Methuselah, who
lived to be like a million or something.

One of the next important people was Noah, who was a good guy, but one of his kids was kind
of a Ham. Noah built a large boat and put his family and some animals on it. He asked some
other people to join him, but they said they would have to take a rain check.

After Noah came Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Jacob was more famous than his brother, Esau,
because Esau sold Jacob his birthmark in exchange for some pot roast. Jacob had a son named
Joseph who wore a really loud sports coat.

Another important Bible guy is Moses, whose real name was Charlton Heston. Moses led the
Israel Lights out of Egypt and away from the evil Pharaoh after God sent ten plagues on
Pharaoh's people. These plagues included frogs, mice, lice, bowels, and no cable.

God fed the Israel Lights every day with manicotti.

Then he gave them His Top Ten Commandments.. These include: don't lie, cheat, smoke,
dance, or covet your neighbor's stuff. Oh, yeah, I just thought of one more: Humor thy
father and thy mother.

One of Moses' best helpers was Joshua who was the first Bible guy to use spies. Joshua
fought the battle of Geritol and the fence fell over on the town.

After Joshua came David. He got to be king by killing a giant with a slingshot. He had a
son named Solomon who had about 300 wives and 500 porcupines. My teacher says he
was wise, but that doesn't sound very wise to me.

After Solomon there were a bunch of major league prophets. One of these was Jonah,
who was swallowed by a big whale and then barfed up on the shore. There were also
some minor league prophets, but I guess we don't have to worry about them.

After the Old Testament came the New Testament. Jesus is the big star of The New
Testament. He was born in Bethlehem in a barn. (I wish I had been born in a barn too,
because my mom 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
Republicans.

Jesus also had twelve opossums. The worst one was Judas Asparagus. Judas was so
evil that they named a terrible vegetable after him.

Jesus was a great man. He healed many leopards and even preached to some Germans
on the Mount.

But the Republicans and all those guys put Jesus on trial before Pontius the Pilot. Pilot
didn't stick up for Jesus. He just washed his hands instead. Anyways, Jesus died for our
sins, then came back to life again.

He went up to Heaven but will be back at the end of the Aluminium. His return is foretold
in the book of Revolution.

IN GOD WE ALWAYS TRUST!
