Two little boys are looking for a way to cool off
on a hot summer day. Dad won't let them play in
the sprinkler because he is
mowing the lawn, so the boys set out to find a way
to get wet and cool without getting into trouble.
They sit on the curb brainstorming when suddenly
one stands up and says "I know, lets get baptized!"
Well, both boys have seen enough to know that you
can get wet at a baptism, so they trot down to the church
on the corner and tell the pastor they want
to get baptized. The irritated pastor finally
relents after about 10 minutes of begging, and he
finally drags the boys
to the men's room and dunks them both head first
into the toilet, then sends them on their way.
One of the boys says, "What religion are we now?"
"I don't know" replies the other "If we were
Baptists, he would have filled up the big tub and
dunked our whole body
like he did for uncle Jim, and if we were
Catholic, he would have
poured it on our heads from a pitcher."
They sat and thought about it for a while longer
when the first one said in a small voice, "Since
he stuck our head in the toilet, I think that it means we're
'piss-ca-palian."
