The story of Noah and...
Illustration
The story of Noah and the ark has been the source of many jokes, like, "Why couldn't Noah play cards on the ark?" (His wife was sitting on the deck). "What was the name of his wife?" (Joan of Ark). "Why were two snakes crying as they slithered off the ark?" (Noah told them to "be fruitful and multiply," and they were adders). "What kind of lights did Noah have on the ark?" (flood lights) -- and so on. This old story, however, is no joke. It teaches us evil always stands under judgment, but that one man or woman can make a difference in our world.
