A Man and a Horse

A man needed a horse, so he went to a temple and got one. Before he left, the priest told him that it was a special horse. In order to make the horse go, you say,

"Thank God,"

and for it to stop you say, "Amen."

So the man left, and a few minutes later he dozed off on his horse. Hours later, he woke up and his horse was racing him towards the edge of a cliff.

Just in time, he shouted "Amen!" and the horse stopped a few inches from the edge.

"Whew," said the man,

"thank God!"
