Three pastors got together for coffee one day and found all their churches had bat-infestation problems.
有一天，三个牧师去喝咖啡，发现他们的教堂都有被蝙蝠困扰的问题。
“I got so mad,” said one, “ I took a shotgun and fired at them. It made holes in the ceiling, but did nothing to the bats.”
“我快要发疯了，”其中一名牧师说，“我曾带了一支猎枪，向它们射击。枪在天花板上打了好几个窟窿，但对蝙蝠毫毛未损。”
“I tried trapping them alive,” said the second. “Then I drove 50 miles before releasing them, but they beat me back to the church.”
“我曾试着活捉它们，”第二个牧师说，“然后我驱车走了50 英里才把它们放开，但它们又追着我回到了教堂。”
“I haven’t had any more problems,” said the third.
“我什么问题也没有了。”第三个牧师说。
“What did you do?” asked the other, amazed.
“你是怎样做的呢？”第二个牧师吃惊地问道。
“I simply baptized and confirmed them,” he replied. “ I haven’t seen them since.”
“我只是给它们洗礼了一下，让它们坚定了信念，”他回答说，“从那以后，我再也没见过它们。”
