In heaven, there ain't no beer. That's why, we drink it here. I haven't seen the offending beer commercial in question. The Miller Brewing Company recently aired a new TV spot showing three young lads in white suits, dancing to hip-hop music and sluggoing suds. These alleged angels run out of beer, glance down at Earth and create a huge wind that fells a tree right in front of a Miller beer wagon.
Bottles fall out of the back of the truck and miraculously float heavenward.
The beer-swilling seraphs then continue their mindless partying. Smart floated a petition with 3,000 names and Miller promptly pulled the plug on the ale-guzzling cherubs. Smart's contention was the commercial was blasphemous, mocked the Christian faith and sent the message that angels were alcoholics. Worse, the commercial implied there was beer in heaven. I haven't thought of heaven in a long time.
