Murder in a Small Town Church

The town of Selmer, Tenn., was shocked to discover that Matthew Winkler, minister at the Fourth Street Church of Christ who was known for his popular, straight-by-the-Bible sermons, was shot to death in a bedroom of the church’s parsonage.

But they were even more shocked to discover that Winkler had been killed by:

A) A gay couple that had just gotten married
B) A pregnant teenaged girl who didn’t want to ask her parent’s permission before getting an abortion
C) A pharmacist who sold the Plan B “morning after” contraceptive
D) A stem-cell researcher
E) An avid evolutionist
F) A sex education teacher
G) His wife and the mother of his three young daughters



ANSWER
G: Yes, sadly, Winker was killed by his wife, Mary, who has since confessed to the crime. Mary, who one congregant described as “adorable,” was also a substitute teacher at the local elementary school. Police have thus far released no motive for the crime…
