Children (humour, PGR)

OK, I've ripped this off another forum, and it's not majorly funny, but I did get a wry grin out of it.

~ The Preacher ~

There was a Preacher whose wife was expecting a baby. The Preacher went to the congregation and asked for a raise. After much consideration and discussion, they passed a rule that whenever the preacher's family expanded, so would his paycheck.

After five or six children, this started to get expensive and the congregation decided to hold another meeting to discuss the preacher's pay. There was much yelling and bickering about how much the preacher's additional children were costing the church.

Finally, the preacher got up and spoke to the crowd and said, "Having children is an act of God!"

In the back of the room, a little old man stood up and in his frail voice said, "Snow and rain are also acts of God, but when we get too much, we wear rubbers!!!"
