A burglar breaks into a house in the middle of the night after ascertaining that the inhabitants are away.

Cautiously, he looks around at what could be pinched, probing the darkness with his torch.

Suddenly, he hears a voice, “God is watching you.”

Alarmed, he swings the torch around trying to find who has just spoken. He sees nothing and again the voice says, “God is watching you”.

After an even more frantic search by torchlight, he sees a parrot in a cage in a far corner. The parrot repeats, “God can see you”.

The burglar finds this very amusing and demands of the parrot, “And just who are you?”

“I’m Jesus,” says the parrot.

The burglar laughs and says, “What sort of idiot names their parrot Jesus?”

“The sort of idiot who names his Russian wolfhound and pit bull terrier cross God. Get him, God!”
