Church Gossip

Mildred, the church gossip, and self-appointed monitor of the church's morals, kept sticking her nose in to other people's business. Several members did not approve of her extracurricular activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence.

She made a mistake, however, when she accused Elmer, a new member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his old pickup parked in front of the town's only bar one afternoon. She emphatically told Elmer (and several others) that everyone seeing it there would know exactly what he was doing!

Elmer, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just turned and walked away. He didn't explain, defend, or deny... he said nothing.

Later that evening, Elmer quietly parked his pickup in front of Mildred's house.... walked home... and left it there all night.

You gotta love Elmer.

You know, I hear these stories about these busy bodies bullying other church members and stuff and it makes me want to go back to church so someone could just TRY that on me. The scene, and the straight up reading that would happen in front of the entire congregation would be worthy of awards lol

Nope. Been in the church, seen it firsthand. Back then I was a kid. As an adult the church would turn to fire and brimstone at my own hands lol

Hell yeah. Saw the same shit when I was growing up. That's why I avoid organized religion like the plague. Folks will spread lies and falsehoods faster than they'll spread the truth.
