As a band of possums had become quite a problem, the Presbyterian Church called a meeting to decide what to do about their possum infestation. After much prayer and consideration, they concluded that the possums were predestined to be there, and they shouldn't interfere with God's divine will.

 

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

 

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

 

The Episcopalians tried a much more unique path by setting out pans of whiskey around their church in an effort to kill the possums with alcohol. They sadly learned how much damage a band of drunken possums can do.

 

But the Catholic Church came up with a very creative strategy! They baptized all the possums and made them members of the church. Now they only see them at Christmas and Easter.

 

And not much was heard from the Jewish Synagogue. They took the first possum and circumcised him. They haven't seen a single possum since.

Love it……
