| Three ministers were discussing the problem of bats nesting in the
upper storey of their churches. Minister 1: "I thought I'd get rid of them by
sneaking up on them and catching them in my fishing net. I took them out into the woods a
few miles away and let them go. Sadly, they were back in church before I could get back
there."
Minister 2 "I put a cat up there with them, thinking it would frighten them away.
But when I went back to check, the cat had disappeared and the bats were still
there."
Minister 3 "I solved the problem. I went up there and baptized and confirmed them
and I haven't seen them since." |
