Quote of the Day - Church: A place in which gentlemen who have never been to Heaven brag about it to people who will never get there.
A Collection Of A Different Kind, Thank GodYep, my Dad was a minister in the Congregational Church, which makes me a PK (Preacher's Kid), or as some of the more erudite of you would say, a TO (Theologian's Offspring). And yes, I walked up and down the aisle with a collection plate. But not everyone is so tactful about it. In this article, two guys walked into a church and shouted, "This is a robbery," proceeding to take an entirely different style of collection. Flashing a handgun, they took women's purses. Not willing to put up with the interlopers, the parishioners tackled the robbers, and they ended up capturing both crooks. Even though I passed around the plate, I never got tackled in church. |
