3 young brothers were watching TV one day when they happened upon a channel where a fire & brimstone preacher was giving his audience the 'what for'....he scared them so much that they turned the TV off.

"We've gotta go get baptized or we'll go to heck (you know what I typed)," one said to the others.

So, they took off running down the street looking for a church. They ran inside the first one they found and bumped into the janitor.

"What're you boys doing here?" he asked.

"Preacher, we want to get baptized so we don't go to heck" the oldest said.

"Come with me then," replied the janitor and he took them into the men's room where he picked each one up one at a time, turned them upside down, stuck their heads in the toilet and flushed. When he finished, he told them they were baptized and to go home.

When they got home, their mother was frantic. "Where have you boys been? I've been looking everywhere for you."

"We got baptized so we won't go to heck."

"Well, I guess I can't be angry with you for that. What religion was the church?"

"It wasn't Catholic," the oldest said. "Because they sprinkle you."

"And it wasn't Baptist," the second said. "Because they dunk you."

"I don't know exactly" the youngest said. "But by the smell of the water, I think it was Piscopalian""

Three young brothers were watching TV one day back in the early 1960' when they happened upon a channel where a fire & brimstone preacher was giving his audience the 'what for'....he scared them so much that they turned the TV off.
