Rumor In The Church

After the morning sermon, the preacher told his congregation in his typical Southern drawl: "I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but someone in this congregation has spread a rumor that I belong to the Ku Klux Klan. This is a terrible lie and one which a Christian community should never tolerate. I am very much offended by the news going around, especially since there is absolutely no truth in it. Now, I want the party who started this unkind act to stand up and ask forgiveness from God and this Christian church family.”

Not a soul moved.

The preacher continued, "I assure you that whoever the person is who spread this outright lie will be fully forgiven, and the Lord will be pleased. Now, I beg that person to please stand and confess your transgression."

Again everyone was quiet until, from the third pew. there arose a drop-dead gorgeous blonde wearing a very fashionable, body-hugging outfit which fully accented a curvaceous and voluptuous figure which would stop traffic.

With her head bowed and her voice quivering, she said, "Reverend, I confess that I am the original source of the rumor, however, I would like to say that there has been a mistake and misunderstanding over what I said. I have never said that you are a member of the Ku Klux Klan. I simply told a couple of friends that you are a wizard under the sheets."

The preacher felt his knees buckle as cold sweat began to pour out of every pore, his wife completely passed out, and the entire congregation roared! -Author Unknown
