A protestant moved into a completly Catholic comunity.

A protestant moved into a completly Catholic comunity. Being good Catholics
they welcomed him to their comunity. But, also because they were good Catholics
they did not eat red meat on Fridays. So, when their neighbor, receiving his
paycheck on Fridays, began barbequuing some juicy stake, they began to squirm.

They were so anoyed that they went to talk to him about it. After much talk
they conviced him to become Catholic. The next Sunday he went to the priest and
the priest sprinkled holy water on him and said :

You were born Protestant -
You were raised Protestant -
But now you are Catholic.

And so, the next Friday, the neighbors sat down to eat fish and were disturbed
by the smell of roast beef from the neighboring house. They went over to talk
to the new Catholic because he new he was not supposed to eat beef on Fridays.
When they saw him, he was sprinlking catchup on the beef saying :

You were born a cow -
You were raised a cow -
But now you are fish.
