In a large church, the preacher developed quite a reputation for his sermons; so much so that he had gathered quite a crowd every Sunday to hear him.
Unfortunately, one weekend a member had to be out of town on business, but he didn't want to miss the preacher's sermon. So he decided to hire someone to sit in the congregation and tape the sermon so he could listen to it when he returned.
Other congregants saw what was going on and they also decided to hire people to tape the sermon so they could play golf instead of going to church.
Within a few weeks time there were 500 contracted "members" sitting in church, taping the preacher. Soon the preacher got wise to this.
The following Sunday he, too, hired someone who brought a tape recorder to play his prerecorded sermon to the 500 "members" in the congregation, who dutifully recorded his words on their machines.
Witnesses said this marked the first incidence in history of artificial insermonation.
