the creation of man

After three weeks in the Garden of Eden, God came to visit Eve.  "So,
how how is everything going?" inquired God.  "It's all so beautiful,
God", she replied.  "The sunrises and the sunsets are breathtaking; the
smells, the sights....everything is wonderful.  But I have just one
problem.  It's these three breasts that you've given me.  The middle one
pushes the other two out , and I am constantly knocking them with my
arms, catching them on branches, snagging them on bushes.  They're a
real pain", reported Eve. Eve went on to tell God that many other parts
of her body such as her limbs, eyes and ears came in pairs, and she felt
that having only two breast might leave her body more "symmetrically
balanced", as she put it.  "That's a fair point", replied God, "but it
was my first shot at this you know.  I gave the animals six breasts, so
I figured that you only needed half of them, but I see that you're
right.  I will fix it up right away."  God reached down, removed the
middle breast and tossed it into the bushes.  Three weeks past and God
once again visited Eve in the garden.  "Well, Eve, how is my favorite
creation now?"  "Just fantastic" she replied, "But for one oversight on
your part.   You see, all the animals are paired off.  The ewe has a ram
and the cow has her bull.  All the animals have a mate except for me.  I
feel so alone."God thought for a moment and said, "You know, Eve you are
right.  How could I have overlooked this?  You do need a mate and I will
immediately create a man from a part of you......now let's see, where
did I put that useless boob?"
 
Now, doesn't THAT make more sense than that business about the rib?
