Battle Of The Churches

A Priest, a Pentecostal Preacher and a Rabbi all served as chaplains to the students of the University

of Georgia in Athens. They would get together two or three times a week

at the Varsity for coffee and to talk shop.

 

One day, someone made the comment that preaching to people isn't really all that hard. A real

challenge would be to preach to a bear.

 

One thing led to another and they decided to do an experiment. They would all go out into the

woods, find a bear, preach to it, and attempt to convert it.

 

Seven days later, they're all together to discuss the "experience".

 

Father Flannery, who had his arm in a sling and is on crutches and has various bandages, goes first.

"Well," he says, "I went into the woods to find me a bear. And when I found him I began to read to him from the Catechism. Well,

that bear wanted nothing to do with me and began to slap me around.

So I quickly grabbed my holy water, sprinkled him and, Holy Mary Mother of

God, he became as gentle a lamb. The bishop is coming out next week

to give him first communion and confirmation."

 

Reverend Billy Bob Jones spoke next. He was in a wheelchair, with an arm and both legs in casts and

an IV drip. In his best fire and brimstone oratory he claimed, "WELL brothers, you KNOW that we don't sprinkle! I went out and I

FOUND me a bear. And then I began to read to my bear from God's HOLY WORD! But that bear wanted nothing to do with me. So I took HOLD of

him and we began to wrestle. We wrestled down one hill, UP another and DOWN

another until we came to a creek. So I quick DUNKED him and BAPTIZED hishairy soul.

And just like you said, he became as gentle as a lamb. We spent the rest of the day praising Jesus"

 

They both looked down at the rabbi, who was lying in a hospital bed. He was in a body cast and

traction with IV's and monitors running in and out of him. He was in b ad shape.

Rabbi Stein looks up and struggles to speak to the others. "Looking back on it, circumcision may not have been the best way to start things off"
