Since everyone else is doing it, I too have decided to add a new parable to the Bible.
__________________________________________________________________

Paul was standing on the beach when Jesus appraoched from the sea.

Jesus: Shalom Paul!

Paul: Shalom Jesus. I thought that was you.

Jesus: Oy it sure is a beautiful day.

Paul: Whats new?

Jesus: While taking a walk, the sea spoke to me.

Paul: Really, what did it say?

Jesus: She said that every drop of water on Earth is like a child of God and able to give life to the world like religion to the soul, but should we corrupt her with but one drop of Evanoxia, all the water would become poison and be an abomination to God.

Paul: Jeez! What did the sea mean by that?

Jesus held a small bottle and carefully extracted a needle bearing one drop of fluid. He held the trembling drop upon the needle for a moment and then let it drop into the surf. Immediately the sea began to turn a sickly red and the waters began to froth. The entire sea had turned a foul stenching red from horizon to horizon in the span of taking one deep breath.

Paul: Jesus, what was that?

Jesus: That was but one drop of politics.
