Robbing The Wrong Bank

I once knew a family who faithfully attended one of the most beautiful mega churches that I have ever seen  in my life.  This family in particular, attended this church were too poor and too uneducated to ascend to any influential position within the church, yet for generation they remained loyal to that church with their prayers and tithes. For some strange reason the men within this family would always wind up in jail for robbing a hole in a wall bank. Therefore, one day I decided to attend one of the young man trial and I sat directly behind this young man, as the judge read him his sentence and I gently tapped him on his shoulder and I whispered in his ear," You're robbing the wrong bank." The young man looked at me twice, as if I was the devil himself, and  he asked me, " What is the name of the bank that I should be robbing?" I replied , "The name of the bank that you should be robbing has been robbing your family for generations and that bank  name is called church." The young man then gave me a puzzled look and before the bailiff escorted him away to jail, he looked at me and yelled, "Church!"
