KIEV (Reuters) - A man shouting that God would keep him safe was mauled to death by a lioness in Kiev zoo after he crept into the animal's enclosure, a zoo official said on Monday.

"The man shouted 'God will save me, if he exists', lowered himself by a rope into the enclosure, took his shoes off and went up to the lions," the official said.

"A lioness went straight for him, knocked him down and severed his carotid artery."

The incident, Sunday evening when the zoo was packed with visitors, was the first of its kind at the attraction. Lions and tigers are kept in an "animal island" protected by thick concrete blocks.

God must've been taking a long weekend.

So did he prove that there's no God, or did he just prove that God doesn't like to be ordered around?

Is this true? If so, it doesn't prove God doesn't exist, but it does prove that God will punish arrogance...

He just proved God likes lions more than humans

At the same time the man was praying for protection, the lion was praying for food to fall from the sky

I think I've said this before, but it seems that church makes quite a few people crazy

This guy failed to read the part when God let the Romans feed the Christians to the lions. Whatta dumbshit.

I dunno, I grew up with some kids were there parent were hardcore religious, they couldn't listen to any non-christian music and pretty much sheltered their kids, they couldn't have friends or anything. And I no for a fact that this kid named malachi is in/our of jail, does meth and what not.....oh and he thinks he's a gangster too and his brother is the same way and I think it was a result of his crazy church going parents...I saw the guy at my high school reunion a couple years ago...he was messed up!!

It doesn't say he was a Christian. I think he was a Atheist just trying to make a point.
