Adam Had One Last Question for God…
God gave Adam his first great task: “Adam, you are to father a child with Eve.”
“Good,” said Adam. “But how do I find Eve?”
“You have to cross the river.”
Adam looked confused. “What is a ‘river’?”
God sighed and explained it to him.
“Then you have to climb the mountain.”
“What’s a ‘mountain’?” Adam asked again.
Another detailed explanation followed.
“You will have to go a very long way.”
“Um… ‘way’?”
God patiently continued his explanation.
“Finally, you enter the cave.”
“Cave?”
After a further explanation, Adam was ready.
“There you will find Eve. And then you will sleep with her.”
Adam hesitated. “What does ‘sleep’ mean in this context?”
God took the time.
Equipped with this new knowledge, Adam set off. He crossed the river, climbed the mountain, hiked along the long path, and entered the cave.
A few days later he returned to God, rubbed his temple in pain and asked in a dull voice:
“God… what, pray tell, is a migraine?”
