Baptizing an Irishman



An Irishman is stumbling through the woods, totally drunk, when he comes upon a preacher baptizing people in the river. He proceeds into the water, subsequently bumping into the preacher. The preacher turns around and is almost overcome by the smell of alcohol, whereupon, he asks the drunk, "Are you ready to find Jesus?"


The drunk shouts, “Yes, I am." <


So the preacher grabs him and dunks him in the water. He pulls him back and asks, "Brother, have you found Jesus?"

The drunk replies, "No, I haven't found Jesus!"

The preacher, shocked at the answer, dunks him again but for a little longer. He again pulls him out of the water and asks, "Have you found Jesus, brother?"

The drunk answers, "No, I haven't found Jesus!"



By this time, the preacher is at his wits end and dunks the drunk again -- but this time holds him down for about 30 seconds, and when the drunk begins kicking his arms and legs about, he pulls him up.



The preacher again asks him, "For the love of God, have you found Jesus?"

(get ready for this)

The drunk staggers upright, wipes his eyes, coughs up a bit of water, catches his breath, and says to the preacher,

"Are you sure this is where he fell in?”














 
Oh, now you've done it. Our Fearless Leader will now have to contend with upset drunk Godless Irishmen complaining on and on and on.
 
Just wondered if Mickey or JP had any experience with this sort of thing ;)
 
Not directly.

Though a good friend from seminary, after he was ordained and in his own parish, once used a coffin for a baptismal font. Theologically sound, that, but not sure I'd have tried it...
