The Challenge

The mist hung low over the field. It was dawn and today was the day of the Challenge. Man and God, side by side, ready. The crowds watched expectantly. It was a bold challenge, initiated by Man, to create life. Man had through years of scientific endeavour perfected the means and was now ready to take on God.

The Challenge commenced. All was quiet. Eager crowds leaned forward.

God stooped down and gathered up some dust in his hand, breathed into it, and a man was created.

The crowds cheered.

Man smiled smugly and knelt down to do the same, but God interrupted: “No, no. You get your own dust.”
