Koohii Story 1 "The church is selling holy water for the faithful, but if you dare to say its tap water, they'd tell you you were blaspheming."
Koohii Story 2 "During the Wedding at Cana, the Son of God had some people come up to complain after he performed his miracle. ""This wine is terrible! Are you trying to sell me watered-down wine?"" He replied, ""It's a wedding, for God's sake, the wine is free, so stop complaining."" The dissatisfied guest retorted, ""Hey, don't blaspheme!"" Jesus Christ just rolled his eyes and, under his breath, uttered his own name in vain."
