    Jesus - He is everywhere and will whop your ass with his wrath if you aint careful

    This CCTV image shows Marian Chadwick ordering the armed robber out of her shop in Frisco, Texas.

    Suspect Gabriel Cabello burst into the crafts boutique in January, pointed a gun and demanded money.

    But Chadwick simply pointed back and said: ‘In the name of Jesus, you get out of my store. I bind you by the power of the Holy Spirit.’ The robber then slowly backed away, before fleeing the store empty-handed.
    'I got mad. The Texas part of me was challenged,' Chadwick told the Dallas Morning News.
    'It was just like this whole store filled with the power of God,' said told local TV station KDFW Fox 4.

    Maybe the guy had just realised he was trying to rob a crafts boutique store?

    She should have shot him, there's 4 guns per Texan so she probably had a few lying around.
    Mind, that's not what Jesus would have done.

    no doubt this is now going to be considered "evidence" of the existence of the almighty-not-there.

    TBH I think yer man thought 'right, this woman's mad enough to stand up to me, this could turn very ugly' and decided it wasn't worth it. I'm no robber, but would probs do the same in his position.

    Nah, I think coming off as a total nutter to a robber is a very good idea provided they're not nuts/off their face themselves.

    No thief with half a brain will willingly let himself be put in a position where he might need to shoot someone. Who wants that hassle? The robber did the smart thing.

    I wonder if I can avoid doing work in school by "using" Jesus like that?

    Reminds me of this one ...
    Late one night, a burglar broke into a house that he thought was empty. He tiptoed through the living room but suddenly froze in his tracks when he heard a loud voice say, "Jesus is watching you."

    Silence returned to the house, so the burglar crept forward again. "Jesus is watching you," the voice boomed again.

    The burglar stopped dead again. He was frightened. Frantically, he looked all around. In a dark corner, he spotted a bird cage and in the cage was a parrot. He asked the parrot, "Was that you who said Jesus is watching me?"

    "Yes", said the parrot.

    The burglar breathed a sigh of relief, then he asked the parrot, "What's your name?"

    "Clarence," said the bird.

    "That's a dumb name for a parrot," sneered the burglar. "What idiot named you Clarence?"

    The parrot said, "The same idiot who named the rottweiller Jesus."
    :D
