Truth

Once the Devil was walking along with one of his cohorts. They saw a man ahead of them pick up something shiny.

“What did he find?” asked the cohort.

“A piece of the truth,” the Devil replied.

“Doesn’t it bother you that he found a piece of the truth?” asked the cohort.

“No,” said the Devil, “I will see to it that he makes a religion out of it.”
