A priest comes out of the church fo find a young boy sitting on the steps.The boy is killing ants by smashing them with his thumb saying,"Fucking ants" with each smash.The priest watches for a moment,horrified,before running over to the boy.

" What are you doing!?!?!" the priest shouts at the boy. "I'm killing these fucking ants" responds the boy. Visibly upset, the priest sits next to the boy."My son,don't you know that it is wrong to harm any God's creatures? God created every living being and it is a sin to kill any of them, including ants."The boy thinks about this a minute and says to the priest," Everything in life has apurpose my son, including these ants.I want you to go home and think about that.In fact, I challenge you to come back in one week and see if you can think of three things in life that do not have a purpose."

One week passes and the priest emerges from the church to find the same boy sitting on the steps,smashing ants with his thumb,reciting the same "Fucking ants" phrase.The priest screams at the boy to stop.Rushing over to him,the priest says to the boy,"My son,I thought I told you that everything has a purpose!Why are you killing these ants?Did you do as I instructed?Were you really able to think of three things in life that do not have a purpose?"
