Bishop Learns Swearing And Pumping Has Meaning
In old sailing days a bishop aboard a ship overheard noisy swearing among the crew. The captain quips that as long as they pump and swear it is okay, but if they pump and pray, trouble is near. The anecdote humorously contrasts profane humor with faith at sea.
