@steele and for another point of view:
… God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"
Abe say, "Man, you must be puttin' me on"
God say, "No, " Abe say, "What?"
God say, "You can do what you want Abe, but
Next time you see me comin', you better run"
… Abe said, "Where do you want this killin' done?"
God said, "Out on Highway 61"
