Alright, I'm providing this link because I don't want to be stealing somebody else's stuff without giving proper credit. BUT I'm going to reproduce it here because I don't want you following the link right now. Why? Because the site is so much fun that if you go there now you might forget I exist. I mean, I'm me and I still almost forget I exist when I go there.
Note that the "me" in this is not me me, it's whoever submitted the story.
Customer: “Hi, I’m looking for a cookbook by a famous chef. He’s on TV. His name is Bobby Fray.”
Me: “Oh, sure…you mean Bobby Flay. Let me—”
Customer: “No, no, NO! I said Bobby FRAY. That’s F-R-A-Y. Fray!”
Me: “Okay, just follow me over to the cookbooks. We’ll take a look and see if we can find what you’re looking for.”
(She follows me to the cookbooks. I pull one of Bobby Flay’s books off the shelf and hand it to her.)
Me: “Is this the author you were looking for?”
Customer: “Yes! See, Bobby Fray—”
(Upon reading “Flay,” she screams in frustration and throws the book on the floor at my feet and storms out.)
Me: *speechless*
Notice something there? That's right, the person looking for the book was more concerned about being right than in the truth. Christians, when you go out witnessing to folks and decide you want to take your ball and go home when you run into something that doesn't pan out in your favor what does that say about you? Yes, there's every chance you'll be ridiculed even when you provide a good argument for your position because you're "superstitious" or "antiquated." There's a big, big difference between someone not accepting the truth you lay before them and you being unable to cope with the response when you propose that EVERYONE KNOWS THE SKY IS GREEN!
It's watching you now
