Prayer Or Fish

Fishing on Sunday

A village pastor, known for his weakness for trout, preached against fishing on Sunday. 

The next day one of his members presented him with a fine string of fish and said, hesitatingly, "I guess I ought to tell you, parson, that those trout were caught on Sunday." The minister hesitated, gazed appreciatively at the speckled trout, and then said piously as he reached for his gift, "The fish aren’t to blame for that."
