             Computer Contest - Jesus vs. Satan 
            Jesus and Satan were having an ongoing argument about who was better 
              on his computer. They had 
              been going at it for days, and God was tired of hearing all of the 
              bickering. Finally God said, "Cool it, I am going to set up 
              a test that will run two hours and I will judge who does the better 
              job." 
            So down Satan and Jesus sat at the keyboards and typed away. 
              They moused. 
              They did spreadsheets. 
              They wrote reports. 
              They sent faxes. They sent e-mail. 
              They sent out e-mail with attachments. 
              They downloaded. They did some genealogy reports. 
              They made cards. They did every known job. 
            But ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed 
              across the sky, thunder rolled, the rain poured and, of course, 
              the electricity went off. 
            Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word 
              known in the underworld. Jesus just sighed. The electricity finally 
              flickered back on, and each of them restarted their computers. 
            Satan started searching frantically, screaming "It's gone! 
              It's all gone! I lost everything when the power went out!" 
            Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files 
              from the past two hours. Satan observed 
              this and became irate.  
            "Wait! He cheated, how did he do it?" 
            God shrugged and said, "Jesus saves.
