Baptizing a drunk


a man is stumbling thru the woods totally drunk when he
comes upon a preacher baptizing people in the river. the
drunk walks into the water and subsquently bumps into
the preacher. the preacher turns around and is almost
overcome by the smell of booze. whereupon he asks the
drunk, " Are you ready to find Jesus? "

" Yes i am " replies the drunk so the preacher grabs him and dunks him in the river. he pulls him up and asks the drunk,
" Brother, have you found Jesus?".

the drunk replies, "No i havent." the preacher, shocked at
the answer, dunks him into the water again, but for a bit
longer this time. he pulls him out of the water and
asks again, " Have you found Jesus, my brother?".

the drunk again answers "No, i have not found Jesus." by this
time the preacher is at his wits end so he dunks the drunk
in the water again, but this time he holds him down for about
30 seconds.

when the drunk begins kicking his arms and legs, the preacher
pulls him up. the preacher asks the drunk again, "For the love of God, have you found Jesus?"

the drunk wipes his eyes and catches his breath and says to
the preacher,

" ARE YOU SURE THIS IS WHERE HE FELL IN? "
