Total Body Immersion
Published Jan 01, 1900
Early in his life a young man prepared to join the Baptist Church. For those of you who don't know, the Baptists practice total body immersion to baptize a person. Luckily the young man knew a minister in that faith, having dated his daughter, and he asked him if he would consider performing the service.
He paused a minute or two, gave the young man a long thoughtful look and said, "Jimmy, if you're serious about this, a dipping just won't do it for you. We'll have to find a place to anchor you overnight."
