There were five places of worship
in a small town: The Presbyterian
Church, the Baptist Church, the
Methodist Church, the Catholic
Church, and the Jewish Synagogue.
Each church was overran 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 next week.
The Methodist Church got together and
decided that they were not in a position
to harm any of God's creatures. 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.
Not much was heard about the Jewish
Synagogue, but they took one squirrel and
had a short service with him called
circumcision and they haven't seen a
squirrel on the property since.
