A young woman visits her parents and brings her fiancé to meet them. After

an elaborate dinner, the mother tells her husband to find out about the young

man. The father invites the fiancée to his library for a drink.

"So what are your plans?" The father asks the young man.

"I am a Torah scholar." He says.

"A Torah scholar, Hmmm," the father says. "Admirable, but what will you do

to provide a nice house for my daughter to live in, as she is accustomed to?"

"I will study," the young man said, and God will provide for us."

"And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring, such as she

deserves?" asks the father.

"I will concentrate on my studies," the young man replies, "God will provide

for us."

"And children?" asks the father. "How will you support children?"

"Don't worry, sir, God will provide," replies the fiancé.

The conversation continues like this, and each time the father questions,

the young idealist insist that God will provide.

Later, the mother asks, "How did it go, Honey?"

The father answers, "He has no job and no plans, but the good news is he

thinks I'm God."
