A recent convert to Christianity is reading from the book of Exodus. When he reaches the part about God parting the Red Sea, he is filled with joy and starts shouting praises to God.
An atheist who is nearby hears him, and asks him what is so great. The Christian shouts, "God just parted the Red Sea so that His people could pass through it!"
The atheist laughs, "Yes, but the Red Sea was only six inches deep there anyway."
Taken aback, the Christian says, "Oh. I...I guess that it wasn't such a great miracle after all."
The atheist starts walking away, happy to have set this misguided fellow straight. Before he has gone very far though, the Christian starts shouting praises again. Disgusted, the atheist turns back and says, "What is it THIS time?"
The Christian says, "God just drowned the entire Egyptian army in six inches of water!"
