The Four Worms
Posted: Tue Aug 09, 2005 8:47 am
A minister decided that a visual demonstration would add
emphasis to his Sunday sermon.
Four worms were placed into four separate jars.
The first worm was put into a container of alcohol.
The second worm was put into a container of cigarette
smoke.
The third worm was put into a container of chocolate
syrup.
The fourth worm was put into a container of good clean
soil.
At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported
the following results:
The first worm in alcohol - Dead.
The second worm in cigarette smoke - Dead.
Third worm in chocolate syrup - Dead.
Fourth worm in good clean soil - Alive.
So the Minister asked the congregation - What can you learn
from this demonstration?
A little old woman in the back quickly raised her hand and
said,
"As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you won't
have worms!"
