THE MISSIONARY

A missionary gets sent into deepest darkest Africa and goes to
live with a tribe there. 

He spends years with the people, teaching them to read, write 
and the good Christian ways of the white man. One thing he 
particularly stresses is the evils of sexual sin. 

Thou must not commit adultery or fornication!! 

One day the wife of one of the Tribe's noblemen gives birth to 
a white child.  

The village is shocked and the chief is sent by his people to 
talk with the  missionary. 

"You have taught us of the evils of sexual sin, yet here a 
black woman gives  birth to a white child. You are the only white 
man that has ever set foot in our village. It doesn't take a 
genius to work out what has been going on!" 

The missionary replies: "No, no, my good man. You are mistaken. 
What you have  here is a natural occurance - what is called an 
albino.  Look to thy yonder field.  See a field of white sheep, 
and yet amongst them is one black one.  Nature does this on 
occasion." 

The chief pauses for a moment then says "Tell you what, you keep 
quiet about the sheep, I won't say anything about the white child"
