EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

A Catholic Priest, a Baptist Preacher, and a Rabbi all served as Chaplains to the students of Northern Michigan University in Marquette .

They would get together two or three times a week 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 all came together to discuss their experience.
>>>
Father Flannery, who had his  arm in a sling, was on crutches, and had various bandages on his body and limbs, went first. 'Well,' he said, '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 as a
Lamb. The Bishop is coming out next week to give him first communion and Confirmation.'

>>>Reverend Billy Bob spoke next...
*He was in a wheelchair, had one arm and both legs in casts and had 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 quickly DUNKED him and BAPTIZED his hairy soul. And just like you said, he became as gentle as a lamb... We spent the rest of  the day praising Jesus.....Hallelujah!


>>>
The priest and the reverend both  looked down at the Rabbi, who was lying in a hospital bed. He was in a body cast and traction with IVs and monitors running in and out of him.. He was in really bad shape.

>>>
The Rabbi looked up and said: "Looking back on it, .......*

Circumcision may not have been the best way to start."

Lol that is good wish I could read a good one every morning
