So this guy walks into a church...

So this guy walks into a church. He goes up to the priest and says: “Look, I’m struggling a lot lately, trying to understand the universe, and our place in existence and all that. None of the stories I’ve heard satisfy me. Can you just tell me honestly – where did this world come from?” The priest looks at him for a moment and replies: “So you really want to know how this world came to be? You want to hear the real creation story?” “Yes I do!” the man pleads. “OK…” The priest pauses then in a solemn reverential tone he begins: *“In the beginning, God said:…”* “What did God say?” the man asks. Another pause, then the priest continues: *“‘So this guy walks into a church…’”*
