== The Burning Shrub ==
In the middle of a scientific facility a fire spontaneously burst out upon a research shrub. The scientists watched amazed, as the trial veered from its expected outcome. Several of the pagan scientists began to take scrupulous notes on the nature of the burning shrub. Some made up a "scientific" term to describe the burning of the shrub, pretending to understand the miracle in front of them. However, the god-fearing men among them saw the burning shrub as proof of the heavenly lords belief. Those religious, honest men were ostracized from the "scientific" community.

== The Missing Child ==
A little girl is late home from school one day. Her mother becomes increasingly worried and after 15 minutes have passed is beside herself with anxiety. Afraid to leave the house in case the child returns, and desperate to go look for her, she is on the verge of telephoning the police when the child waltzes in through the door as though nothing is amiss. Relieved and angry the mother cries: "Where have you been?! I've been so worried!"
