Catholic  Squirrels


There  were four country churches in  a small TEXAS  town: 
 The Presbyterian Church, the Baptist Church, the Methodist Church and the Catholic Church.

 

Each  church 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 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 on Christmas and Easter
