“Biblical Bargain: Pope’s Poultry Predicament”

Colonel Sanders walks up to the Pope one day and says, “I’ll give you $5,000 if you change the words in the Bible ‘Give us this day our daily bread’ to ‘give us this day our daily chicken’.” The Pope replies, “Sorry, I cannot change the words of the Bible.” Sanders says, “How about $7,000?” “Sorry, I cannot,” the Pope replies. “$8,000?” Sanders tries again. The Pope thinks about it and says, “Well, alright.” Later, he goes to the cardinals and says, “I have good news and bad news. The good news is we’re $8,000 richer. The bad news is that we lost our endorsement with Wonder Bread.”
