God v. The Devil - Genesis Revised?

In The Beginning, God created the Heaven and the Earth.
And the Earth was without form, and void, And darkness was
upon the face of
the deep.

And the Devil said, "It doesn't get any better than this."

And so God created Man in His own image; Male and female He
created them.

And God looked upon Man and Woman And saw that they were
lean and fit.
And God populated the earth With broccoli and cauliflower
and spinach
And green and yellow vegetables of all kinds, So Man and
Woman would live
long and healthy lives.

And so the Devil created McDonald's.
And McDonald's brought forth the 79-cent double
cheeseburger.
And the Devil said to Man, "You want fries with that?"

And Man said, "Super size them."
And Man gained five pounds.

And so God created the healthful yogurt, That Woman might
keep her figure.
But the Devil brought forth chocolate.
And Woman gained five pounds.

And God said, "Try my crispy fresh salad."
And the Devil brought forth Ben and Jerry's.
And Woman gained 10 pounds.

And God said, "Why doth thou eatest thus?
I have sent thee heart-healthy vegetables And olive oil with
which to cook
them."

But the Devil brought forth chicken fried steak So big it
needed its own
platter.
And Man gained 10 pounds And his bad cholesterol went
through the roof.

And so God brought forth running shoes.
And Man resolved to lose those extra pounds.

And the Devil brought forth cable TV with remote control So
Man would not
have to toil to change channels
between ESPN and ESPN2.
And Man gained another 20 pounds.

And so God brought forth the potato, A vegetable naturally
low in fat and
brimming with nutrition.

And the Devil peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the
starchy center
into chips and deep-fat fried them.
And the Devil created sour cream dip.

And Man clutched his remote control And ate the potato chips
swaddled in
cholesterol.

And the Devil saw and said, "It is good."

And Man went into cardiac arrest.
And God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

And the Devil cancelled Man's health insurance.

So God showed Woman how to peel the skin off chicken.
And cook the nourishing whole grain brown rice.
And the Devil created light beer So Man could poison his
body, While feeling
righteous because he had to drink

twice as much of the now-insipid brew to get the same buzz.
And Man gained another 10 pounds.

And Woman ventured forth Into the land of Godiva chocolate,
And upon
returning asked Man, "Do I look fat?"

And the Devil said, "Always tell the truth."

And Man did.

And Woman went out from the presence of Man And dwelt in the
land of the
divorce lawyer, East of the marriage counselor.

And the Devil said, "It doesn't get any better than this."
