There are an astronomical number of people who need to be helped every day by Jesus, but on Sunday, aerialist Nik Wallenda walked a tightrope across the Grand Canyon, amazing viewers, but also nagging Jesus the whole way. Well, countless others requiring Jesus's intervention were almost needlessly killed Sunday when Mr. Wallenda, seeking to hog Jesus's attention all for himself, distracted Jesus from what He was trying to do just enough to throw Him off His game. "That guy better leave me alone for a while if he knows what's good for him", commented Jesus Sunday night, speaking through His usual televangelist mouthpiece Pat Robertson: "I mean, he places himself in danger, and then he's trying to cut in line ahead of everybody else who needs help? What a jerk. Now I know how it feels to be that guy who's mad at Me because he dropped that touchdown pass. But fortunately, I saved it, no thanks to him." But, Robertson claims, this is indeed, if ever, an example of the squeaky soul getting the redemption.

(Just kidding! It was surely impressive, but it was a bit naggy with the Jesus intervention requests, don't you think?)
