The Alabama preacher said to
his congregation, "Someone in this congregation has spread a rumor that
I belong to the Ku Klux Klan. This is a horrible lie and one which a
Christian community cannot tolerate. I am embarrassed and do not intend to
accept this. Now, I want the party who did this to stand and ask forgiveness
from God and this Christian family." No one moved. The preacher
continued,

"Do you have the nerve to face me and admit this is a falsehood? Remember, you will be forgiven and in
your heart you will feel glory. Now stand and confess your transgression
" Again all was quiet. Then slowly, a drop-dead gorgeous blonde with a
body that would stop traffic rose from the third pew. Her head was bowed and
her voice quivered as she spoke, "Reverend there has been a terrible
misunderstanding. I never said you were a member of the Ku Klux Klan. I
simply told a couple of my friends that you were a wizard under the sheets." The preacher fainted, and the congregation
roared!
