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 occurrence - 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 don't say anything about the sheep, I won't say anything about the white child."

Did the sheep have his eyes?
You know, there is a tribe (or three) in Africa that has sex with their animals to increase their fertility; although, I'm not sure which party's fertility increases through these actions: the animals or the humans.
And I’m the asshole for looking down on another culture.
I believe we have one of those tribes here, also. The males typically have rednecks, sport tobacco stained beards,wear bib overalls, have bad teeth, answer to names such as bubba, or enos, or willow,and dwell in trailer parks.
