Fundy student of mine claims extra female rib, refuses to hear reason - Google Groups : alt.atheism

Don't know if this story is true, but it made me
laugh, and that is really all that matters. All I
know about ribs are that they sure taste great
and Sylvester Stallone punched on them in a
meat locker in 'Rocky'.

"--a true story from last week

Student:  Women have an extra rib.

Mr. Knievel:  No, they have the same
number as men.

Student:  Huh uh, it says so in the Bible.

Mr. Knievel:  The Bible says no such thing.

Student:  Uh huh, Eve was made out of one of Adam's ribs.

Mr. Knievel:  Well, that is in the book of Genesis, but
that's not the same thing as saying that women IN GENERAL
have one more rib than men IN GENERAL.
We can observe this...it's a fact.

Student:  But they do.

Mr. Knievel:  No, we can count the ribs of men and
women and see that they are the same--understand?

Student:  Scientists don't know nothing.

Mr.  Knievel:  They can COUNT TO TWELVE, CAN'T THEY!?!?!?!?

Student:  Maybe the rib is invisible.

Mr.  Knievel:  Sit down and don't talk to me for
the rest of the day."
