Ethnic Joke Revised

June 5


Don is a good minister. One Sunday he tells a joke about a minister who wired all the pews in his church for stewardship Sunday. He asked "all who pledge $100 a week stand up," He pushes a button and several people are jolted to their feet. Applause. He does it again for $50 etc.

After the service the preacher notices a Scotsman slumped over in his pew.(Laughter) As I leave I tell Don he needs to take the Scotsman out of the joke. He does, making the fall guy the town bumpkin. The change is  none to soon, for at the next service there is a visiting family from Scotland.

"Rebuke one who has understanding, and he will discern knowledge.” (Proverbs 19-25)
