There were 4 country churches in a small Texas town:
Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist and Catholic. Each church was overrun with pesky squirrels.
One day, the Presbyterian church called a meeting to decide what to do about the squirrels. After much prayer and consideration they determined that the squirrels were predestined to be there and they shouldn't interfere with God's divine will.
The Methodist group got together and decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God's creations. So, they humanely trapped the squirrels and set them free a few miles outside of town. Three days later, the squirrels were back.
The Baptists proved to have the most immediate approach. After a quick mini sermon where each squirrel was asked to individually accept or reject Christ, they got their trusty shotguns hanging from the backs of their pickups and promptly eradicated each squirrel from the face of the earth.
It was only the Catholics who were able to come up with the best and most effective solution: They baptized the squirrels and registered them as members of the church. Now they see them only on Christmas and Easter.

Muslims no problem, bring in a mad mullah, recruit suicide bombers from the congregation and try and terrorise the pesky squirrels away.
