A rat infested town asked the local religious leaders for help...

[chwaliszewski]

so the head minister, rabbi, and priest got together to find a solution. The Baptist minister spoke up first and suggested that rat poison should be used. The rabbi and priest didn't care for that idea as it was too dangerous because of small children and pets possibly getting into it. The rabbi suggested setting traps to catch the rats. They would not be killed but instead would be taken far away and released. The minister and priest nixed that idea because it would just make the rats someone else's problem plus the possibility of them finding their way back to town. The minister and rabbi looked at the priest for his suggestion, since their's were dismissed. The priest finally decides, "I've got it. We'll baptize all of the rats and only see them at Christmas and Easter!"
