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.”
