A bunch of preachers from different churches had Thanks Giving dinner together. One of them said" I bet Jesus would have liked turkey" The other preacher said" no he wouldn't" Then one asked, " why wouldn't he, Well said the other preacher," If he ate thanks giving dinner he would have to go to the bathroom. The other preacher said" don't you believe Jesus went to the bathroom?" No I don't replied the one, The other preacher sitting on the side said with a laugh, " Then he must have been a big fellow"
This is a true story!!

While I know you were kidding, I think the one problem with "the church" is we carried over the clergy mindset from Rome that creates two classes of people.
