warfie Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I've heard this one in a number of variations, and actually thought it had been posted here for years ...but I didn't find it. So here it is again... Diamond D's brothel began construction on an expansion of theirbuilding to increase their ever-growing business. In response, the localBaptist Church started a campaign to block the business from expanding-- with morning, afternoon, and evening prayer sessions at their church.Work on Diamond D's progressed right up until the week before the grandreopening when lightning struck the whorehouse and burned it to theground! After the cathouse fire, the church folks were rather smug in theiroutlook, bragging about "the power of prayer." But late last week 'BigJugs' Jill Diamond, the owner/madam, sued the church, the preacher, andthe entire congregation on the grounds that the church "was ultimatelyresponsible for the demise of her building and her business -- eitherthrough direct or indirect divine actions or means." In its reply to the court, the church vehemently and voraciouslydenied any and all responsibility or any connection to the building'sdestruction. The crusty old judge read through the plaintiff's complaintand the defendant's reply, and at the opening hearing he commented, "Idon't know how the hell I'm going to decide this damn case, but itappears from the paperwork that we now have a whorehouse owner whostaunchly believes in the power of prayer, and an entire churchcongregation that thinks it's all bullshit!"
