God was missing for six days. Eventually, Michael, the Archangel,
found him;
resting on the seventh day.
He inquired, "Where have you been?"
God smiled deeply, and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds,
"Look, Michael.
Look what I've made."
Archangel Michael looked puzzled, and said, "What is it?"
"It's a planet," replied God, "and I've put life on it... I'm going to
call it Earth, and it's
going to be a place to test Balance."
"Balance?" inquired Michael, "I'm still confused."
God explained, pointing to different parts of earth. "For example,
northern Europe will
be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while southern Europe is
going to be poor.
Over here I've placed a continent of white people, and over there is a
continent of black people.
Balance in all things."
God continued pointing to different countries. "This one will be
extremely hot, while this
one will be very cold, and covered in ice."
The Archangel, impressed by God's work, then pointed to a land area
and said,
"What's that one?"
"That's Washington State, the most glorious place on earth. There are
beautiful mountains,
rivers and streams, lakes, forests, hills, and plains. The people from
Washington State are
going to be handsome, modest, intelligent, and humorous, and they are
going to travel the world.
They will be extremely sociable, hardworking, high achieving, carriers
of peace, and producers
of software."
Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, "But what
about balance, God?
You said there would be balance."
God smiled, "There's another Washington. Wait till you see the idiots
I put there.”
