The Merits of Drinking
Topics: Jokes, Sermon
At a downtown mission one evening the minister was preaching a sermon on the evils of drinking. To illustrate the point he put two glasses on the pulpit. The first glass he filled with water, the second glass he filled with a very good bourbon whiskey. The he dropped a healthy earthworm into the glass of
water. Immediately the worm started to swim around. The he took the worm and dropped it into the glass of whiskey.
Immediately the worm shriveled up and died. The minister asked the congregation of drifters, "What does this prove to you?"
Immediately an old drunk enthusiastically raised his hand and
said, "Preacher, if you drink good whiskey, you won't get worms.
