A Diet of Worms

Subject: Four worms in church

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 did you learn from this demonstration?”

Maxine was sitting in the back, quickly raised her hand and said . . …..

“As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate,

you won’t have worms!”

That pretty much ended the service!
