Creationism vs. evolution: Whose God is making America richer?

An old Zen koan goes something like this...

Imagine a cat in a barn. It jumps towards a big open window. Its head goes through, its legs go through, then its body goes through. But the tail does not go through. What stopped the tail?
 
big government and taxes - they prevent many dreams from being accomplished.

seriously... I love that koan... thank you for letting me see it.
I almost want to run for the senate from California and use it my campaign focus.

: a paradox to be meditated upon that is used to train Zen Buddhist monks to abandon ultimate dependence on reason and to force them into gaining sudden intuitive enlightenment

I read it ... I was like what the heck... ricter stumped me?

I took a call... got off the phone and got it immediately upon reading it again.
Apparently that is sort of what is supposed to happen.
that was cool.
