It could be for a number of reasons, but the fact that the lion went straight for him without hesitation is definitely a type of sign. Zoo animals are never so violent that they'd go straight for a person with intent on killing, most are afraid of people. It could have been that the guy had some sort of doubt in his mind, like when Peter went to meet Jesus walking on the water. Also, the people who witness and perform miracles like that happen to be the ones who pray the most, so this poor sap must have been unprepared in some way. I think this comes pretty close to a Darwin award.

Hmm, another thought, saying "God will save me" may not mean "God will save my life". The guy could have actually went to heaven, but this isn't too likely.

Some people are vegetarians for religious reasons. Some people pray three times or more each day. And apparently, some people are willing to become lunch to end a religious debate.

Ah well. The zoo's visitors should be grateful - you don't often get a chance to see a lionness killing her prey. Consdiering the circumstances, I bet that's a memory that'll last a lifetime.

Problems with that guy. First off, according to the scriptures, God will not respond to people requesting signs. I would give some quotes form the bible, but I'm too lazy.

Seriosuly, what kind of guy would throw himself to the lions?

Which is exactly what a religiously inclined person would say to justify that acts of a world that believes in something that no one can tangibly proves exists. Biggest, longest running money scam in the world.

Lioness in zoo kills man who invoked God

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.


I'm going with the latter on this one. Even if God exists, I'm sure He's sitting back, laughing at this fool.
