Should A Pastor Apologize and Should Christians Participate In A Beer Race?

In this Q&A, Father Don answers two questions:

1. Should a pastor apologize for potentially offending a disabled person through a sermon illustration. What should the response be by all parties involved?

2. Can Christians participate in a beer marathon. That's right --- A beer marathon. The questioner wants to participate in a local one-mile beer race. the concern is the runner might not be able to handle 4 full beers (given at quarter mile) without being intoxicated. Is this a violation of the "drunkenness" in the New Testament?
