|
|
Boudreaux, a Cajun highlander from Rapides Parish in central Louisiana, was an older, single gentleman,
who was born and raised a Baptist. Each Friday night after work, he would fire up his outdoor grill and cook
a venison steak. Now, all of Boudreaux's neighbors were Catholic ... and since it was Lent, they were
forbidden from eating meat on Fridays. 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 Boudreaux, and suggested that Boudreaux convert to Catholicism. After several classes
and much study, Boudreaux 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 Catholic."
Boudreaux's 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
Boudreaux's yard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped in amazement and watched.
There stood Boudreaux,clutching a small bottle of water which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat,
and chanted: "You wuz born a deer, and you wuz raised a deer, but now you a catfish." _________________ The heaviest baggage for a traveler is an empty wallet.
