Heh. Same site I got mine from.
And this one (though I also saw it in a book once)
"There are two dead bodies on the floor. They are surrounded by water and broken glass. How did they die?"

Given the fact you asked that question, I think you know the answer to the riddle.
No, they aren't.

good, just making sure
Here's the answer I gave to a very similar question that my friend asked me
A fishbowl containing 2 fish was sitting precariously on a shelf near an unlatched window. A sudden gust of wind blew in the window, knocking the fishbowl off. It shattered upon impact, leaving the two fish to die of suffocation
...more or less...it doesn't really matter how the bowl fell, only that it broke on impact

Correct. The bodies are two goldfish; their deaths were caused by the fishbowl breaking.
I actually have another one I remember from the book:
"A man died and went to heaven. When he arrived, he saw countless men and women around him, each wearing only the barest minimum of clothing. As he walked around, he saw Adam and Eve among the masses. Though he never saw them before and neither spoke a word to him, he knew that they were Adam and Eve. How did he know?"

god, why'd you need to bring biblical stories into this...
I'll go with 'Adam and Eve weren't wearing anything'...that or they were wearing their leaves
...isn't that how it went in the garden of eden up until the end?

Can I have a third choice?
'Adam and Eve didn't have bellybuttons'
...because if, as the stories say, they were created directly by God, they wouldn't have needed an umbilical cord prior to birth, thus, no bellybutton

Sorry, that's not it.
The clothing itself is irrelevant. Think what Adam and Eve would have (or lack) that everyone else wouldn't.
And for the record, this is the only religion-inspired riddle I know.

awkward reveal aside...

You know, the Justin Biber thread was very informative. Considering you refused to answer it my question when I asked, Mabo.
I'm so glad my pain brings you such humor. ;_;
