Yes, God did exist. He died. He was very small. Mystery solved!

[Khephra]

(Scene: A room that looks like a giant shoe box made to look like a dollhouse or a diorama (remember those from elementary school?) This whole skit is shot in black and white and has the tone of a fifties school film both in music and acting style.)

(The philosophers sit and, and drink and stroke their beards until Bruce turns to Mark.)

Bruce: God is dead.

Announcer V.O.: Yes. "God is dead", cried Nietzsche. And the cry has been heard for years. But for each philosopher, there has been a cynic. (Scott and Kevin pop out of nowhere)

Kevin: No way!

Scott: Prove it!

Announcer V.O.: And that is where the argument has stalemated... until now!

(We see a man holding a small body. Two other men stand in the back.)

Man: God IS dead. And here is the body to prove it.

(The cynics appear, their hair messed)

Kevin: You've just blown my mind!

Scott: Our minds have been blown!

(We see the philosophers, looking very smug)

(A doctor examines the body and nods sadly at the camera.)

Announcer V.O.: The world is shocked. First to find out God did in fact exist and second to find out he was now dead.

(We see a montage of crowd scenes, and various people looking stunned, ending with a shot of a sad priest (Dave))

Dave: I've got some good news and some bad news.

(Dave motions to the small coffin he stands next to.)

Announcer V.O.: But the world was most shocked to find out how small God was.

(We see several images of wind pushing around trees, lightning storms and a flower blooming in sped-up time during the next speech and finally the man holding the small body again.)

Announcer V.O.: Imagine winds.... storms... the miracle of life. All from this tiny God with such tiny hands and feet.

Man: He's really light, too.

(We see Dave hold up and turn a small jacket. It has GOD spelled out on the back.)

Announcer V.O.: Yes, God did exist. He died. He was very small. Mystery solved!

(We see a mother and her daughter holding candles and crying.)

Announcer V.O.: The world has a brief period of mourning.

(Cut to pictures of trucks going down the highway.)

Announcer V.O.: And then it's business as usual, on the streets and highways that God built.

4. An excellent sketch

Kids in the Hall were great. It's a shame not more people have seen or heard of their work bk I really think they had some original material seen no where else.

The little God sketch was a classic.
