Joke Time

Once again, it's hump day, so time for a joke to tide you through the rest of the week. I have no idea how long I can keep this up. It's hard finding 52 religious jokes.... I've told this one before, but it's still a keeper!

Jack, Paul and Louie volunteered to raise money for their church by
selling bibles. Jack and Paul were professional salesmen, but the
pastor had doubts about Louie because of his speech impediment. The
next Sunday, they reported their sales. Jack said, "I sold 20 bibles
on behalf of the church." The pastor replied, "Fine job, Jack! The
Church is indebted to you." Paul said, "I sold 30 bibles on behalf of
the church." The pastor replied, "Splendid, Paul. The church is
indebted to you." Louie silently handed the minister a large envelope.
The minister counted its contents and rejoiced. "Louie, there's over
$3,000 in here! Did you sell that many bibles in just one week?" Louie
nodded. "Impossible!" cried Jack. Paul said, "We're professional
salesmen. How could you sell 10 times more bibles than we did?" "It
does seem unlikely," agreed the minister. "What technique did you use,
Louie?" Louie shrugged. "I-I-I re-re-really do-do-don't kn-kn-know
f-f-f-for sh-sh-sh-sure. A-a-a-all I-I-I s-s-said wa-wa-was,
'W-w-w-w-would y-y-y-you l-l-l-l-l-like t-t-to b-b-b-buy th-th-th-this
b-b-b-b-bible f-f-for t-t-ten b-b-b-bucks or wo-wo-would yo-you
j-j-j-just l-like m-m-me t-t-to st-st-stand h-h-here and
r-r-r-r-r-read it t-to y-y-you?!'"
