Oh Cookie. I found it very cute that right in the middle of the prayer he ate part of the desk. :smile:

XD LOL!
I just saw Notre dame (Disney movie) so I am a little disturbed on ministers--so I get a bad feeling that the minister is plotting something strange here but I was always known to be paranoid. Continue!

I am like laughing as I read because Cookie + Minister = MUNCH COOKIES AND ANGRY MINISTER! x3

Kidding perhaps he means well in this story. It appears so.

Contiue! :big_grin:

Oh and when I say I am paranoid of ministers...I meant fictional ones. Not the real ones. XD

Well technically I am afraid I am a fictional minister.:embarrassed: But please I assure you I am a good fictional one and mean all the very best for Cookie.

Incidentally you can find me in my role as Father Marty in a few episodes of T*K*O season 4 and also Part 4 of Beth's Stories about Rowlf and his sweetie Wanda. (the title escapes me at the moment but I think I'll be able to find a way to reference the events in it to my story as time goes by.)

I'll try to get a list of all those episodes for the record. As far as I know my character doesn't exist in anything else at all but if I come across or am informed of them I shall add them to Father Marty's "bibliography":smile:

CHAPTER 5

Father Marty proceeded to talk to Cookie Monster about how the world was created by God as a perfect paradise. He explained how the first man and woman, Adam and Eve, lived in the Garden of Eden in a state of perfect happiness with no illness, sorrow or hardship.
"They were completely innocent Cookie Monster. Paradise was theirs for all eternity. All they had to do as a test of their loyalty to their Creator was to obey this one rule."
"What rule that Father?"
"They could freely eat from every tree in the garden, except for the one in the very middle. God had warned them that if they ate from this particular tree, they would lose their innocency and they would have to die."
Cookie was spellbound by Father Marty's words. His mouth hung open as he thought about what he'd just heard.
"What happen then Father?"
"They failed their test, I'm afraid Cookie. One day Eve listened to a snake challenging what God had said. It told her that God was being selfish. Keeping something away that would make her and Adam equal to God Himself. She allowed herself to be deceived and ate the forbidden fruit. Then she gave some to her husband repeating the snake's lies to him. And he ate also. But they realized afterwards they had done the wrong thing and were afraid to show themselves before God. He had to banish them from the beautiful garden and they would have to work hard for the food until eventually they would die as He had said they would."
"Hey. Me can identify with Adam and Eve Father. They ate something they shouldn't just as me eat things me shouldn't."
"That's right Cookie. We all are prone to do the wrong thing because our first parents fell from grace and marred God's Creation of us. But you know. Even though God condemned Adam and Eve He never took His love away from them. He promised them to send somebody to make reconciliation with Him possible. Many centuries later God sent His precious Son born of a woman as a perfect man to bring us back into a right relationship with Him."
Father Marty then proceeded to share with Cookie Monster all about how Jesus lived a perfect life and was cruelly put to death by wicked men but afterwards rose from the dead as proof that God the Father had accepted His death as a sacrifice to pay the penalty for the wrongs of Adam and Eve and all their descendants throughout the ages.
"So you say Father that this God love me no matter what me done?"
"Yes that's right Cookie. God forgave Adam and Eve, He's forgiven me too and He wants to forgive you as well. All you have to do is accept. Take these homework sheets and fill them in before our next appointment please."
Cookie looked worried. "But Father. Me scared. What if me lose control and eat these sheets instead of doing them right?"
Father Marty took his paws in his hands. "Let's pray again. Dear God. As I know how much you love Cookie Monster and want to help him find the peace he so desperately needs through your Son, please don't allow him to eat his homework before next week. Amen."

Cookie was still a little unsure. But he took the worksheets and said good-bye.
When he left Father Marty prayed silently to himself. He had great faith and hope for Cookie's sake. He was in God's Hands now.

Hmm- this is an interesting thread... I'm enjoying the story though. It seems there quite a few Muppets that might need evangelizing! Pretty funny, man.
Cookie Monster trying to break the wild eating habit? Yes, he might definitely need God's help in this!:big_grin:
I can't wait to see how Minister Marty makes out with reaching out to :grouchy: and :crazy: keep it up!

XD I laugh so hard at how Cookie keeps eating stuff and blowing his nose on things. I love how you manage to maintain that same humor but at the same time put a tender seriousness towards the story. This story is very interesting to me. I like Marty already! ;3

Anyway, I die laughing at how wonderful this story is. XD Poor Cookie for his habits.

Marty, this is really cool! And very cute. You have just created the first T*K*O spin-off and it looks to be very succesful indeed! Really very original idea.

Thank you Mrs.Pepper. And you have just given me another idea about my fan-fic. It's going to become the first in a series of short stories for a T*K*O spin-off. Since I am completely un-experienced in writing in the form of like a television script they shall be in short story form.
Shortly I shall post what shall be the final chapter in this premier story. Thanks Mrs.P God bless you too.
