In order to outlaw Bingo, you first need to climb the slippery slope of church politics. Ever watch shows like house of cards? You need to gladhand the deacons with prodigious use of eclairs at tea after service, then visit the elderly parishioners as they are a solid political block. Finally, by using an especially gilt book of sermons he can crib from, you get the preacher in your back pocket. Using the influence thus gained, you can get yourself appointed the comptroller of Thursday night church hall games, and then Bingo will be no more - be sure to blame it on your mortal enemy, Edith the church administration lady.
How can I convince people that I can both talk the talk and walk the walk?
