Lesson 1 Do You Think It Really Happened?

Martha:My sister claims to have had the most unbelievable experience.

Sandy:I'm not at all surprised; she's so gullible¹. She's always telling these weird² stories.

Martha:This time she has outdone herself! But, between you and me, I'm convinced she's pulling my leg.

Sandy:OK, well, let me have it. What are you waiting for?

Martha:She says that she and her husband were driving home last night, and suddenly, right up ahead,they saw a gigantic cross light up, right out of nowhere.

Sandy:Good grief! That must have freaked her out, big time! Especially since she's not a practicing Christian³.

Martha:Exactly! So, now she's going through a lot of religious introspection. She has even gone so far as to think the "shining cross" was a sort of divine "omen⁴".

Sandy:Do you think it really happened? Did she really see it? Sounds like a real cock and bull story to me!

Martha:No, as a matter of fact, my husband has demystified the incident. I'll tell you about it at lunch!
