Bats In The Belfry

Did you hear about the three ministers who were talking about their common problem with bats in the belfry of the church?

The first: "I shot at them with a shotgun; but it only spoiled the woodwork."

The second: "I tried a more humane approach, netting them and releasing them 100 Km away. But they beat me back to the church!"

The third (who was looking pretty smug): "I caught them, and baptized and confirmed each one. I haven't seen them since."
