Finishing the sentence XLIII

Here's another unfinished sentence I wrote and some responses it elicited in 1993:

The whole thing got started one day when the messenger blew the message out of proportion.  Consequently...

...there was a big fire, and NBC got the conclusion to its new miniseries. (Jeff B.)

...the male elders promoted scripture as the "Gospel truth" rather than as a creative epic like Gone With The Wind, and that's how this whole God thing took over humanity. (Frank B.)

...Rhode Island was deemed worthy of statehood, rather than the mere county status that it had requested. (Liz F.)
