After leaving their different Sunday services one Sunday afternoon, a little Baptist boy and a Catholic girl met while walking down a dirt road.

Since they were both going the same way, they decided that they’d walk together. The road had flooded and there was no way to get across without getting wet. “I tell you what I think I’ll do,” said the little girl.  “I’m gonna take off all my clothes and hold them over my head and wade across.” “That’s a good idea,” replied the little boy. “I’m going to do the same thing with my suit.”

So they both undressed and waded across to the other side without getting their clothes wet.  When they reached the other side the little girl looked carefully at the boy and with much surprise remarked, “You know, until this moment I never realized just how much difference there really is between a Baptist and a Catholic.

    I don't get the joke, also I read it aloud in math class to my friend and got some weird stares from Lucas and Thomas Nation. I would enjoy if you could clarify the joke for me as I did not understand, this is coming from someone with a Catholic background, whilst my friend comes from a Protestant background, and she could not understand either. Thank you Steve Ray. 4/10

    STEVE RAY HERE: If you don’t get the joke, I’m not sure I can explain it. The innocent kids think that their anatomical differences are inherently due to being Catholic or Protestant.

    Hello Steve, I’m that random guy who said Hi to you at the Atlanta International Airport last Thursday, Aug. 15. My family and I are from San Diego and were on our way to visit my parents in Virginia Beach. I’m a fan of you and guys like Tim Staples. I love reading conversion stories because it strengthens my Catholic Faith. I knew exactly who you were when I saw you and I had to say HI. I wanted to talk and thank you for what you do but I got so excited I didn’t know what to say and we had to board in 15 min. I’m sure you were on your way to catch a flight out too. God Bless you Steve Ray! Maybe we’ll run into each other again someday. Rudi

    I got the joke and thought how sweet and innocent these children are. (So, now she believes girls are Catholics and boys are Protestant. Interesting world view!)
