> >> It seems a man in Topeka, Kansas, decided to
> >> write a
> >> book about churches around the country. He
> >> started by
> >> flying to San Francisco, and started working
> >> east from
> >> there. He went to a very large church and began
> >> taking photographs, etc. He spots a golden
> >> telephone on a
> >> wall and is intrigued with a sign which reads
> >> "$10,000 a minute." Seeking out the pastor he
> >> asks
> >> about the phone and the sign. The pastor
> >> answers that
> >> this golden phone is, in fact, a direct line to
> >> Heaven
> >> and if he pays the price he can talk directly to
> >> God.
> >> He thanks the pastor and continues on his way.
> >>
> >> As he continues to visit churches in Seattle,
> >> Boise,
> >> Minneapolis, Chicago, Milwaukee, New York,
> >> Atlanta,
> >> and on around the United States, he finds more
> >> phones,
> >> with the same sign, and the same answer from
> >> each
> >> pastor.
> >>
> >> Finally, he arrives in Texas. Upon entering a
> >> church
> >> in Austin, lo and behold, he sees the usual
> >> golden
> >> telephone. But THIS time, the sign reads "Calls:
> >> 25
> >> cents." Fascinated, he requests to talk to the
> >> pastor.
> >>
> >> "Reverend, I have been in cities all across the
> >> country and in each church I found this golden
> >> telephone, and have been told it is a direct
> >> line to
> >> Heaven and that I could talk to God, but, in the
> >> other
> >> churches the cost was $10,000 a minute. Your
> >> sign reads 25 cents a call. Why?" The pastor,
> >> smiling benignly, replies,
> >> "Son, you're in Texas now, it's a local call."
