Putting The Cart Before...

Knights of the Round Table sat around discussing what they ought to do next. King Arthur asked the aged Merlin who had come down for a visit and was also present.
“ Any suggestions, Oh wizard?”
“ Holy Grail would be a challenge worthy of these knights?”
The king thought it was indeed a wise counsel. The king put the proposal on the table. All the knights were immediately on their feet exclaiming,” Hurrah, we have been fasting these days! We have sanctified ourselves for this holy quest.”
The king noticed that one of the knights remained seated.
Merlin went to Noelle and asked if he wasn’t enthused enough to set out.
No stir from this knight who had in his day killed two ogres from Kilkenny. “ Remember, excellent knight! Holy Grail isn’t any ordinary cup. It is the cup our Lord drank from.”
“ I know,” the wan and pale knight answered, “Just the same I shall not move from here without my constitutional. Two cups filled to brim, for me and my Molly,-my nag if you must know. And one for the road.”
The king ordered his valet to serve the knight from his own cellar. Having drunk Knight Noelle mounted his horse saying,” I can now appreciate truly the charms of this Holy Grail.” And he rode off.
You can only begin any quest from the known to the unknown.
First learn to be a good humanbeing before you spill the blood of each other over your God.
