An American politician was addressing a huge election rally in a large city, and was anxious to find out the religious affiliation of the majority of his listeners. So he said.
My great grandfather was a Presbyterian (Silence), but my great grandmother was a Pentecostal (Silence), my grandfather was a Baptist (Silence), but my grandmother was a Methodist (Silence),I have a great aunt who is brethren (loud applause) and I have always followed my great aunt!”
This man was willing to sacrifice truth for popularity.
