This reminds me of the old joke about Jesus being taken to task as a showoff by his pardners in a golf game. Incredible, thanks for sharing this.
"The United States today is like a cruise ship on the Niagara River upstream of the most spectacular falls in North America. A few people on board have begun to pick up a slight hiss in the background, to observe a faint haze of mist in the air or on their glasses, to note that the river current seems to be running slightly faster. But no one yet seems to have realized that it is almost too late to head for shore." -- Historian and author Chalmers Johnson"
Can you imagine how frustrating it would be to be alone when making such a magnificent shot, and then trying to convince others it happened. ;-)

How many golf balls does one have to lose in the drink before you get good at a shot like that?
At least a trillion.

Jesus, Moses and an elderly looking gentleman were playing golf. Moses steps up to the tee and swings and the ball dives into a pond. He raises his club, spreads his arms, the water parts, then he walks out to the ball and chips it up onto the green. The others complement him on his shot, then Jesus steps up for his turn. Like Moses, Jesus' ball heads straight for the water but, when it gets there, it just rolls across the surface of the pond and stops in the middle. He walks across the water to the ball and chips it up onto the green. The others complement him too, then the elderly golfer steps up to take his shot. His ball also dives for the pond but a fish jumps up and catches it in its mouth. As the others begin to laugh, a hawk swoops down, picks up the fish and flies over the green, where the fish drops the ball. It ricochets off a turtle's back and rolls towards the woods, where a squirrel runs out to get it and almost does but a gust of wind nudges the ball into the cup for a hole in one. Jesus turns to the old man and says, ... "Nice shot dad!"
