Wednesday's Joke of the Day

In a small Texas town, a new bar/tavern started a building to open up their business. The local Baptist church started a campaign to block the bar from opening with petitions and prayers. Work progressed, however right up till the week before opening, when a lightning strike hit the bar and it burned to the ground.

The church folks were rather smug in their outlook after that, till the bar owner sued the church on the grounds that the church was ultimately responsible for the demise of his building, either through direct or indirect actions or means.

The church vehemently denied all responsibility or any connection to the buildings demise in its reply to the court.

As the case made its way in to court, the judge looked over the paperwork.

At the hearing he commented, 'I don't know how I'm going to decide this, but as it appears from the paperwork, we have a bar owner who believes in the power of prayer, and an entire church congregation that doesn't.'

Bonus Joke:

A church congregation decided to have four separate worship services each Sunday.

There was one section for those people who were new to the faith. A second was for regular members who preferred the more traditional worship service. The third service was for those who'd lost their faith and wanted to get it back, Finally, there was a separate service for those who had had some unsuccessful experiences with other churches and had some complaints.

The four divisions are named "Finders," "Keepers," "Losers," "Weepers."
