Hi there,
So for the sake of clarity I will tell you the joke:
A city was overcome by flooding and the flooding continued to rise. A man in this city was devoted to God and stayed with his house, confident that God would rescue him. The floods continued to rise. A little while later a man in a small boat came along and offered to give the devout man a ride. "No, thankyou, I'm fine: God will rescue me," said the devout man.
A little while later, while the floods continued to rise, a larger boat came along and offered to give the devour man a ride. "No, thankyou, I'm fine: God will rescue me," said the devout man.
A little while later, while the floods were really rising, a helicopter surveying the area came along and offered the devout man a ride. "No, thankyou, I'm fine: God will rescue me," said the devout man.
Then the floods rose even higher and the devout man drowned.
When the devout man got to Heaven, he was upset and approached God directly. "God, you knew I was a devout man and that I needed help, that the flood waters were too high - why didn't you come and rescue me?"
God paused for a moment. "Dear man, I sent you a small boat, a larger boat and a helicopter? What do you mean "why"?"
-=================
Ok so I told this joke to the class today and the response was really positive - all atheists, but all laughing!
Who knows how you might be able to witness, with the right kind of jokes at your disposal?!
