The Coconut of Truth

Pretend for the moment that you want to help the citizens of a planet who are heavily addicted to a poisonous substance that their government has forced on them. Would you pretend to be a benevolent god who replies to the prayers from two non-addicted citizens? As that god, would it be alright for you to plant the idea of a revolution in the minds of your believers? And, would it be appropriate for you to name those believers Fred and Ethel from the I Love Lucy reruns you used to watch? Would you be surprised if Lucy and Ricky were also mentioned? Did you know that benevolent gods are allowed to lie and steal if it's for a good cause? Would you have a smoking hot time helping the people of Pandora? Winnie did.

If you can believe the benevolent god story, would you also believe that novice-lawyer Reese would be defending a baseball coach who has been accused of murder? If time travel revealed that the coach was completely innocent, would you believe that corrupt police would ensure that she'd be found guilty? But what if Reese had a coconut of truth? Would you believe that the judge would allow Reese to use it on the witnesses? Would you be surprised if that Coconut worked? If so, would you think that the people behind the false murder accusation have now been stopped? Are you sure?
