Squirrels
The Presbyterian church called a meeting to decide what to do about their squirrels. After
much prayer and consideration, they concluded the squirrels were predestined to be there and
they shouldn't interfere with God's divine will.

At the Baptist church the squirrels had taken an interest in the baptistery. The deacons met
and decided to put a water slide on the baptistery and let the squirrels drown themselves. The
squirrels liked the slide and, unfortunately, knew instinctively how to swim so twice as many
squirrels showed up the following week.

The Methodist church decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God's creatures.
So, they humanely trapped their squirrels and set them free near the Baptist Church. Two weeks
later the squirrels were back when the Baptists took down the water slide.

But the Catholic Church came up with a very creative strategy. They baptized all the squirrels
and consecrated them as members of the church. Now they only see them on Christmas and Easter.

Not much was heard from the Jewish synagogue; they took the first squirrel and circumcised
him. They haven't seen a squirrel since.
