Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a venison steak.
But, all of Bubba's neighbors were Catholic.....and since it was Lent, eating meat on Friday
was forbidden. The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem
for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their Priest.
The Priest came to visit Bubba and suggested he become a Catholic.
After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass.....and as the Priest sprinkled
holy water over him, he said,
"You were born a Baptist, and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic."
Bubba's neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived, and the wonderful aroma
of grilled venison filled the neighborhood.
The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors, and as he rushed into Bubba's back yard,
clutching a rosary and preparing to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.
There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over
the grilling meat and chanted:
"You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a catfish."
Born A Baptist
