Local church is doing a riverside baptism. There is a pretty long line of people waiting to be baptized by the river.
A wandering drunk man sees the line, doesn’t know what’s going on but decides to join in.
When it is the drunk man’s turn, he goes into the river and the preacher grabs him, holds the drunk’s nose, takes him under the water, brings him back up and says to the drunk man “Have you found Jesus?”
Drunk man says “no”
Preacher gets a puzzled look on his face, grabs the drunk man and takes him under again, holding him down a few more seconds, brings him back up and says a little more forcefully “Have you found Jesus??”
Drunk man says “Nope”
Preacher is really flustered now, grabs the drunk and really pulls him under the water, keeps him under for a long time, finally pulls him up and screams at the drunk “HAVE YOU FOUND JESUS?!?”
Drunk man is spitting and sputtering, gasping for air and when he gets his breath replies to the preacher “Are you sure this is where he fell in?”
