The Pope, Franklin Graham, an Orthodox Rabbi and an atheist

were admiring a new statue of the Madonna that had been erected in a Vatican square. Unfortunately, the statue toppled over when the base crumbled, pinning the rabbi's leg under the Madonna's chest. Franklin Graham and the Pope knelt in prayer as the Rabbi screamed in pain.

The atheist looked around the area and saw a steel bar that had been left behind by the workmen. He quickly ran over and got it, along with a large wooden block that was nearby. He rushed to the scene of the accident, pried up the marble statue and kicked the block under it. Then, he pulled the Rabbi out of danger and tended to his bleeding wounds.

The Pope and Franklin Graham nodded at each other and one said, "As we see, God always provides..."

The atheist ran to a nearby telephone box and summoned an ambulance.
