Jessica 0 #1 August 28, 2003 It was a story about a classroom after a war had been lost. The old teacher was led out and a new one came in. She told the kids to pray for candy, so they did, and no candy appeared, so the teacher said there was proof there was no God. Then she told them to pray to "our leader" for candy, and when they did, she tiptoed down the aisles and put candy on their desks. Does anyone remember this story?Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michele 1 #13 August 28, 2003 QuoteIt's worth reading. It's very chilling. Another story, similar in vein and tone except detailing the adult ~male/female ~ relationship after a civil war/world war is "The Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood. Extremely disturbing, and very interesting at the same time. BTW, I ran a detailed search for you, Jess, but was unable to locate the text. Sorry...
