Venison Steak

Each Friday night after work, James would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a venison steak.

But, all of James' neighbors were Catholic. And since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.

The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest.

The Priest came to visit James, and suggested that he become a Catholic

After several classes and much study, James attended Mass ... And as the Priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, "You were born a Baptist, and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic.

James neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived, and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood.

The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors, and, as he rushed into James' yard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.

There stood James, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat and chanted:

"You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a catfish."
