WHY GYPSIES MUST STEAL
AT THE SITE OF JESUS' CRUCIFIXION, THERE WERE GYPSIES ALL AROUND.
ONE OF THE GYPSIES RAN UP TO THE CROSS AND STOLE ONE OF THE NAILS
HOLDING JESUS TO THE CROSS. JESUS THANKED THE GYPSIE, AND THIS IS
WHY GYPSIES MUST STEAL.

WHY PEACOCKS' FEATHERS HAVE AN EYE IN THEM.
DURING THE CRUCIFICTION, PEACOCKS WANDERED BELOW THE CROSS, PECKING
AT THE BODIES ON THE CROSSES. DROPS OF BLOOD FELL ON TO THEIR
FEATHERS. THESE STAINS BECAME THE EYES ON THE PEACOCKS' FEATHERS.

CHRIST AND THE ROBINS
THE REASON ROBINS HAVE RED BREASTS ARE BECAUSE WHEN CHRIST WAS
DYING ON THE CROSS BIRDS SNUGGLED UP THEIR BREASTS TO CHRIST'S
WOUNDS, IN ORDER TO CATCH THE FLOWING BLOOD. IN RETURN FOR THEIR
GOOD DEED CHRIST GAVE THEM THEIR RED BREASTS IN RECOGNITION FOR
THEIR DEED.
