Squirrel story!
There were five country churches in a small Texas town:
The Presbyterian Church, the Baptist Church, the Methodist
Church, the Catholic Church and the Jewish Synagogue.
Each church and Synagogue was overrun with pesky squirrels.
One day, the Presbyterian Church called a meeting to decide what
to do about the squirrels. After much prayer and consideration they
determined that the squirrels were predestined to be there and they shouldn't interfere with God's divine will.
In the Baptist Church, the squirrels had taken up habitation in
the baptistery. The deacons met and decided to put a cover on the
baptistery and drown the squirrels in it. The squirrels escaped somehow,
and there were twice as many there the next week.
The Methodist Church members got together and decided that they
were not in a position to harm any of God's creation. So, they humanely
trapped the squirrels and set them free a few miles outside of town. Three
days later, the squirrels were back.
But the Catholic Church came up with the best and most effective
solution.They baptized the squirrels and registered them as members
of the church. Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter.
Not much was heard about the Jewish Synagogue, but they took one
squirrel and had a short service with him called circumcision. They
haven't seen a squirrel on the property since.
