It is reported that the following edition of the Book of Genesis was
discovered in the Dead Seal Scrolls. If authentic, it would shed light
on the question, "Where do pets come from?"
And Adam said, "Lord,
when I was in the garden, you walked with me everyday. Now I do not see
you anymore. I am lonesome here and it is difficult for me to remember
how much you love me."
And God said, "No problem! I will create a
companion for you that will be with you forever and who will be a
reflection of my love for you, so that you will know I love you, even
when you cannot see me. Regardless of how selfish and childish and
unlovable you may be, this new companion will accept you as you are and
will love you as I do, in spite of yourself."
And God created a
new animal to be a companion for Adam. And it was a good animal. And God
was pleased. And the new animal was pleased to be with Adam and he
wagged his tail. And Adam said, "But Lord, I have already named all the
animals in the Kingdom and all the good names are taken and I cannot
think of a name for this new animal."
And God said, "No problem!
Because I have created this new animal to be a reflection of my love for
you, his name will be a reflection of my own name, and you will call
him DOG."
And Dog lived with Adam and was a companion to him and
loved him. And Adam was comforted. And God was pleased. And Dog was
content and wagged his tail. After a while, it came to pass that Adam's
guardian angel came to the Lord and said, "Lord, Adam has become filled
with pride. He struts and preens like a peacock and he believes he is
worthy of adoration. Dog has indeed taught him that he is loved, but no
one has taught him humility."
And the Lord said, "No problem! I
will create for him a companion who will be with him forever and who
will see him as he is. The companion will remind him of his limitations,
so he will know that he is not always worthy of adoration."
And
God created CAT to be a companion to Adam. And Cat would not obey Adam.
And when Adam gazed into Cat's eyes, he was reminded that he was not the
supreme being. And Adam learned humility. And God was pleased. And Adam
was greatly improved. And Cat did not care one way or the other.

Eve and Adam
One day in the Garden of Eden, Eve calls out to God... "Lord, I have a problem!"
"What's the problem, Eve?"
"Lord,
I know you've created me and have provided this beautiful garden and
all of these wonderful animals, and that hilarious comedic snake, but
I'm just not happy."
"Why is that, Eve?" came the reply from above.
"Lord, I am lonely. And I'm sick to death of apples."
"Well, Eve, in that case, I have a solution. I shall create a man for you."
"What's a 'man,' Lord?"
"This
man will be a flawed creature, with many bad traits. He'll lie, cheat,
and be vainglorious; all in all, he'll give you a hard time. But, he'll
be bigger, faster, and will like to hunt and kill things. He will look
silly aroused, but since you've being complaining, I'll create him in
such a way that he will satisfy your... ah, physical needs. He'll be
witless and will revel in childish things like fighting and kicking a
ball about. He won't be too smart, so he'll also need your advise to
think properly."
"Sounds great," says Eve, with an ironically raised eyebrow. "What's the catch, Lord?"
"Yeah, well... you can have him on one condition."
"What's
that, Lord?" "As I said, he'll be proud, arrogant, and
self-admiring... So you'll have to let him believe that I made him
first... So, just remember... it's our secret... Woman-to-woman!"
It'll Cost You an Arm and a Leg
God says to Adam, "What would you like in a wife?"
"Hmmm," says Adam, "I'd like her to be the most beautiful creature in the world. I'd like her to do whatever I tell her to. I'd like he to work hard, be smart, enjoy being with me."
"Hmmmm", God says, "I can do it, but it'll cost you an arm and a leg."
"Oh," says Adam, "Well what can I get for a rib?"
