Well, no punch line, but the funny factor here is the sock puppet snake manipulated by God himself for those that didn't notice. It doesn't make any sense? The bible doesn't make any sense either. Since the snake, isn't the devil _ the devil isn't mentioned once in genesis. And, talking snakes don't exist. There remains only one possible alternative, God was the snake.
Put another way, God is all knowing of past, present and future. As he created Adam and Eve he would have foreseen that they would ultimately disobey him. Yet, God didn't act on this knowledge, the events transpired as we know them. The only two possible conclusions that can be derived from this is that God didn't foresee the betrayal and so isn't omniscient which, furthermore, means that the Christian God doesn't exist since, by definition, he is omniscient (logical contradiction). The alternative is that the betrayal was part of God's plan and thus the snake was also part of God's plan. Hence God was the snake's puppeteer.
