God is a Surgeon

God is a surgeon.

How do I know?

Well, one day Adam, the man God had made, after naming all the animals, is so tired from all that activity that he falls into a deep sleep. He is a bit sad that there is no one on earth to help him name all the animals. He doesn’t have anyone to talk to except God, as the animals don’t have the gift of language.

They make funny noises but Adam doesn’t understand them, and can’t really know what they are saying.

It is really God who sends Adam into a deep sleep and gives him a dream, while He is busy with something else.

While Adam is sleeping, God opens him up and takes out his rib.

He saw how Adam was unhappy he had nobody to talk to, and thinks ‘It is not good for man to be alone’.

I don’t know how God did this without any bleeding or anesthetic, but then he’s God, he can do anything. God examines Adam’s rib. Perfect, he won’t even know it’s missing. I am going to make him a helper.

Adam has plenty of ribs and God chooses the fattest one below his heart to make a woman out of.

Up in God’s workshop, He had the blueprints. He moulds the woman to look like Adam but gives her longer hair, and makes her body more shapely. He turns her around and gives her hips and legs and longer fingers. And eyelashes. And he removes the facial hair, and gives her fuller lips. She is looking very fine and delicate. He also smooths over her skin making it soft and sensitive to touch.

Adam will love this, thinks God. Then he can’t complain to me he is all alone.

Lastly he adds in the woman’s voice box, fine tuning the vocal chords to the right pitch so she sounds melodious to his ears. Finally, woman is finished. The final creation.
