Silly Thinking

STDead.

Today: Mary, Mother of Jesus.



DA: Hello, Mary.


M: Hello, dead announcer. Hi, everyone.


DA: Mary, as they approach Easter on earth I thought you could tell us a little about your son, Jesus.


M: Jesus? Well, you know, he was my son but he was also the son of God. God got me pregnant, not my husband. A lot of people didn’t believe me but it’s true.


DA: Oh, were not disputing that.


M: Well, good. A lot of people did. Anyway Jesus was an average boy, he liked exploring and pomegranate jam sandwiches, and he loved my soup. He was a good boy. And, of course, he had super powers.


DA: When he first used those powers, what was that like?


M: Well, it was a little strange, I mean when your son brings a dead bunny back to life and can read your mind, it took some getting used to. We told him to keep them a secret till he was older. So he was just an average boy who lived in our small town and had these super powers no one knew about. Occasionally some of the kids kind of found out, I mean boys will be boys after all. We thought maybe he would grow to be a man and use these extraordinary powers for good.


DA: Well, he did didn’t he?


M: Yes. But the government didn’t like him doing these things and eventually stopped him. We told him he should work for the good of all people, but that darn government.


DA: And…


M: And well, you know what happened. Thousands of years later God tried again with that Clark Kent, funny, in our day my son’s story became the inspiration for the Bible, but later it was a comic book. Times changed.


DA: Thank you, Mary.


M: Umm hum.


DA: See you next time on STDead. I’m dead announcer.
