MT. VERNON, TEXAS
Diamond D's brothel began construction on an expansion of their building to increase
their ever-growing business.
In response, the local Baptist Church across the street 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 grand reopening
when lightning struck the whorehouse and burned it to the ground.
After the cat-house was burned to the ground by the lightning strike, the church
folks were rather smug in their outlook, bragging about "the power of prayer." But
late last week 'Big Jugs' Jill Diamond, the owner/madam, sued the church, the preacher
and the entire congregation on the grounds that the church ... "was ultimately responsible
for the demise of her building and her business -- either through direct or indirect
divine actions or means."
In its reply to the court, the church vehemently and voraciously denied any and all
responsibility or any connection to the building's demise.
The crusty old judge read through the plaintiff's complaint and the defendant's reply,
and at the opening hearing he commented: "I don't know how the hell I'm going to
decide this case, but it appears from the paperwork, that we now have a whorehouse
owner who staunchly believes in the power of prayer, and an entire church congregation
that thinks it's all bullshit."

Yes, I thought that was funny as well. It just shows the hypocrisy of most Christians to
denounce their belief in the power of prayer when it hits them in the pocketbook like that.
I'm glad the whore house owner saw a bit of the light in terms of the value of prayer,
though, so long as she was not trying to make a buck as well, which is what I suspect.
Personally, the lawsuit is frivolous and should be not given a second thought, acts of
nature are usually covered by insurance and if the madam had none, that is her loss. Very
amusing though.
