A
black person went to a foreign country and wanted to rent an apartment to
accommodate his family and himself. However, the landlord refused to rent
the place to him because of his color. Most of the tenants there were white,
or at least yellow or brown; he was black, so the landlord refused.
Frustrated,
he complained, "God, I want to live in that apartment, but they discriminate.
They asked me many difficult and unreasonable questions to keep me out. God,
they really discriminate!"
God
shook Hiers head and said, "I too dared not venture inside!"
The
black person asked, " What? Why didn't You dare go into that apartment?"
God
replied, "What if I went in and they asked me what my faith is, how would
I answer them?" (Laughter and applause)
