I know we have a section for jokes in the Forum. However, I wanted to lighten things up for a change since everyone is dealing with serious problems these days. So.. here goes.
In a small American town, a band of squirrels had become quite a problem. The Presbyterian Church called a meeting to decide what to do about their squirrel infestation. 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 baptistry. The deacons met and decided to put a water slide on the baptistry 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 Lutheran Church decided 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. The Episcopalians tried a much more unique path by setting out pans of whiskey around their church in an effort to kill the squirrels with alcohol poisoning. They sadly learned how much damage a band of drunk squirrels can do. The Catholic Church came up with a more creative strategy. They baptized all the squirrels 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 because they took the first squirrel and circumcised him. They haven't seen a squirrel since.

Love the name of that church, 2old . First Self Righteous Church. Ray Stevens never worried too much about being politically correct. Pretty well "called 'em like he saw 'em". Amazing, though, how he was deemed a celebrity by the redneck world which, today, eschews the thought of being considered "self righteous". Sorta like those who profess to be "pro-life", yet are suggesting a few lives may need to be sacrificed for the sake of the economy.

Love the joke but you forgot the Methodists. We would have formed a committee to meet quarterly to talk about the squirrel problem. Minutes would be taken and for that reason there would have to be an Annual General Meeting to elect office bearers for a term of three years. Pastoral care of the rodents would be the first item on the agenda.
