A man dies and arrives in heaven.  It's a dreamlike,  wonderful place with an infinite amount of people.  They are all naked and look as they did at age 21.  He looks around for someone familiar and spots a couple walking towards him.  How does he instantly know that they are Adam & Eve?

 

The answer:  Adam & Eve don't have belly buttons because they were created, not born.


What is greater than God,

More evil than the devil,

Poor people have it,

Rich people need it,

And if you eat it, you'll die?

 

The answer: NOTHING
