EAT, DRINK,BE MERRY

"Eat drink and be merry," was once criticized as being unchristian by someone, whom I do not recall . The saying which is attributed to a Greek named Epicurus is doubtless much more ancient; is in the Bible. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.gotquestions.org/amp/eat-drink-and-be-merry.html People will have you condemning anything unless it benefits them. I was told to preach about tithing, when I was sent to my first church, by my superior officer. Of course, tithing supports the church, so I could readily understand his latent rationale for so advising me. Still, I persist in the conviction that eating drinking and being merry is far better than any of its opposites!
