I witnessed a homeless person being thrown out of a supermarket almost immideatly after he entered it. He mumbled to himself, when I passed him. I asked him what was going on. He mumbled something about "beer and money and 60 years". At first I thought he asked me for money, so I gave some excuse. But apparently he wanted me to buy beer with his own money.
I thought it was unjust that someone with money on him would just get thrown out, so I accepted. I bought him a beer. (I had trouble picking out the right sort, because I never ever drink. I am not ashamed of that)
Anyway, when I was done I allowed myself a little prank and told him, after he thought I would go away: "You know a visit in the church might help you more than that beer I just bought you." "Why don't you join me in church? I go to (name of church)."
Anyway afterwards he looked at me a bit perplexed, like he normally never encounters situations like this. Funny thing is I am not a religious person either, but I like to think that this might have made a difference in his life.
Before you answer btw, he gave me enough money for 2 beers. He asked for "beer". I only gave him one bottle.
Okay, now you can judge me.

Meh. Jesus turned water into wine. Buying a beer for someone and inviting them to church is perfectly fine.
Leo Bell
But I did it as a "prank" to have a little fun with him and myself and not really, because I am religious.

You think buying someone a beer and inviting them to church is a prank? You have an odd sense of humor.
Levi Turner
I bought him a beer with his own money.
And yeah, think about it like one of the youtube pranks, but without youtube. It's like practice to just have a bit of fun socially.

You just robbed a homeless man, lmao people are so beautiful even this post is created to stroke your ego trying to make somethin out of cheating someone.
Humans are so kind
Andrew Young
I didn't rob him. I even gave him the rest of the change back and the receipt, so he knows I wasn't winnie the pooh him.
And I am just doing this thread for the same reason I told him to go to Church. To have fun.

Congrats OP, you just enabled a bum and his alcoholism
Nathan Reed
Ok, thank God you didn't steal from the homeless man. You sound alright, probably helped the homeless guy more than you know.

Like Jesus who turned water into wine? This is your brain on pr*testantism
Jason Powell
Jesus turned water into wine to show the people that he is a servant of God, while at a party for a wedding. Jesus didn't enable a bum with alcoholism.
Two vastly different situations, a*ostolic

Here is the whole proverb: Sayings of King Lemuel 31 The sayings of King Lemuel—an inspired utterance his mother taught him.
2 Listen, my son! Listen, son of my womb! Listen, my son, the answer to my prayers! 3 Do not spend your strength[a] on women, your vigor on those who ruin kings. 4 It is not for kings, Lemuel— it is not for kings to drink wine, not for rulers to crave beer, 5 lest they drink and forget what has been decreed, and deprive all the oppressed of their rights. 6 Let beer be for those who are perishing, wine for those who are in anguish! 7 Let them drink and forget their poverty and remember their misery no more. 8 Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. 9 Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.
Wine or alcohol isn't fit for a king, but those that have problems. This is why you don't cherry pick verses.

Time and a place for everything. Drinking for merriment is perfectly in place at a wedding, but that's not the same as being falling-down drunk on the street.
Carson Johnson
Really?

beer is normal, therefore good, weirdness is a sin, Jesus hated weird people that liked things nobody else liked, notice how god condemns all that weird shit nerds do? God is normal, likes soccer, beer and reggaeton.
Jayden Wood
I mean which state of drinking is "sinful drunkard drunk?"
