    Church Leader Pint Glasses?

    I found these while browsing about online and found them to be quite unique and fun! Not trying to spur up anything particularly religious, but I know of a few clergymen on here who might like to wet their whistle by some scholarly pints! Haha!

    I recognize Luther and Calvin, but I don't know about the other two.


    Incidentally, I once carved a jack-o-lantern using this picture of Luther. I called it a Luth-o-lantern.


    ...a few minutes later...

    After some Googling, I've discovered these gents are, clockwise from top left: Jonathan Edwards, Martin Luther, John Calvin, and Charles Spurgeon.

    When given a choice, most people will choose.

    That just reminds me of Monty Python's Philospher song...

    The Philosopher's Song (Monty Python)

    Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
    Who was very rarely stable.
    Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
    Who could think you under the table.
    David Hume could out-consume
    Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel,
    And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
    Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.

    There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya'
    'Bout the raising of the wrist.
    Socrates, himself was permanently pissed...

    John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
    On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
    Plato, they say, could stick it away;
    Half a crate of whiskey every day.
    Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
    Hobbes was fond of his dram,
    And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart: "I drink, therefore I am"
    Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed;
    A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed!

    The guy in the lower right is John Knox and the guy in the lower left is......I think the actor Sebastion Cabot.
