Q.: What is the chief end of man?

A.: To glorify billiards and to enjoy them forever.

mr. newman, i'd like to see scriptural support for this new take on catechism!

I still wonder why the committee of the Westminster Divines didn't put anything in the LC about pocket billiards. Oh well, I guess everyone has their blind spots.

As far as the requirement for biblical citation is concerned, I'm appalled you would need, or seek, such an answer, Abby. Must everything we do be explicitly and duly noted? It's only obvious that billiards is the most similar to the Christian life.
Our life starts out very organized and tidy, triangular if you follow what I mean. Then, suddenly, a white ball comes out of nowhere and messes everything up.
