Man tries to convert lions to Jesus, gets bitten
46-year-old leaps into den at Taipei Zoo, calls beasts to Christianity

TAIPEI, Taiwan - A man leaped into a lion’s den at the Taipei Zoo on Wednesday to try to convert the king of beasts to Christianity, but was bitten in the leg for his efforts.

“Jesus will save you!” shouted the 46-year-old man at two African lions lounging under a tree a few meters away.

“Come bite me!” he said with both hands raised, television footage showed.

One of the lions, a large male with a shaggy mane, bit the man in his right leg before zoo workers drove it off with water hoses and tranquilizer guns.

Newspapers said that the lions had been fed earlier in the day, otherwise the man might have been more seriously hurt ... or worse.*** ****

You didn't know that lions are born with not-so-original sin and must find the lord in order to reach a higher Serengeti?

You'd think a Christian would know better than to approach a lion. There is some history there, after all.

I knew a very Christian man who kept refering to non-Christians as Lions. Always made me chuckle.

Yeah, I'm thinking that probably has nothing to do with his religious leanings though...

A lot of stupid people find philosophies and religious teachings which make them do and say even stupider things.
