An argument against the possibility of incarnation of a deity:

I bought “2 in 1″ shampoo, but “2 in 1″ is a bull$#!+ term because 1 is not big enough to hold 2. That’s why 2 was invented in the first place. If it were “2 in 1″ it would be overflowing and the bottle would be all sticky.

Merry Christmas!
