From the God Helps Those Who Help Themselves Department

A priest in Africa drowned after trying to walk on water.

Evangelist preacher Franck Kabele, 35, told his congregation he could repeat the biblical miracle.

One eyewitness said: "He told churchgoers he'd had a revelation that if he had enough faith, he could walk on water like Jesus.

"He took his congregation to the beach saying he would walk across the Komo estuary, which takes 20 minutes by boat.

"He walked into the water, which soon passed over his head and he never came back."

And the religious right wonders why anyone with an IQ greater than an eggplant thinks they are dumb.
