Brigita's Blog: How and Why Dogs (and Cats) Were Created - Funny Friday

Perhaps you would enjoy reading what the scholars of the dead Sea Scrolls might have discovered to be an addition to the Book of Genesis.  It has been in the family for many years and goes like this:

Adam said, "Lord, when I was in the garden, you walked with me every day.  I do not see you anymore and I am lonely.  It is difficult for me to remember how much you love me."

God said, "I shall create a companion for you who will always be with you and shall reflect My Love for you.  His love shall be unconditional: regardless of how selfish, childish, or unlovable you may be.  He will accept and love you."

God created an animal for Adam, and it was good.  And God said, "Because I have created this animal to be a reflection of my love for you, his name shall be a reflection of My name.  And you will call him  DOG."

The dog lived with Adam.  Adam was comforted.  The dog was content and wagged his tail.

Then 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 and come to believe that he is worthy of adoration.  He has learned from the dog's devotion that he is loved, but has no humility."  And the Lord said' "I shall create another companion for him who will see him as he is and remind him of his limitations, so that he knows that he is not worthy of adoration and will become humble."  So God created the cat.  The cat did not obey Adam, and he was reminded he was not the supreme being.  He learned humility.

Adam was greatly improved.  God was pleased.  So was the dog.  The cat did not care one way of the other.
