A skeptic, while bringing flowers to a cemetery, noticed an old
Chinese man placing a bowl of rice on a nearby grave.
The skeptic walked up to the man and asked, "When do you expect your friend to come up and eat the rice?"
The old Chinese man replied with a smile, "Same time your friend
comes up to smell the flowers."
(And ceceoh adds, "A skeptic, while bringing flowers to a cemetery..." Isn't this called "hedging your bets"? :)
