The Preachers Son ( Archived) (7)

An old country preacher had a teenage son, and it
was getting time the boy should give some thought to
choosing a profession. Like many young men, the boy
didn't really know what he wanted to do, and he
didn't seem too concerned about it.

One day, while the boy was away at school, his
father decided to try an experiment. He went into
the boy's room and placed on his study table four
objects:

a Bible
a silver dollar
a bottle of whisky
a Playboy magazine.

"I'll just hide behind the door," the old preacher
said to himself, "when he comes home from school
this afternoon, I'll see which object he picks up.
If it's the Bible, he's going to be a preacher like
me, and what a blessing that would be! If he picks
up the dollar, he's going to be a businessman, and
that would be okay, too. But if he picks up the
bottle, he's going to be a no-good drunkard, and,
Lord, what a shame that would be. And worst of all,
if he picks up that magazine he's gonna be a
skirt-chasin' bum."

The old man waited anxiously, and soon heard his
son's footsteps as he entered the house whistling
and headed for his room. The boy tossed his books on
the bed, and as he turned to leave the room he
spotted the objects on the table. With curiosity in
his eye, he walked over to inspect them. Finally, he
picked up the Bible and placed it under his arm. He
picked up the silver dollar and dropped it into his
pocket. He uncorked the bottle and took a big drink
while he admired this month's centerfold.

"Lord have mercy," the old preacher disgustedly
whispered, "he's gonna run for Congress!"
