"Because, I don't want to be baptized in water that has all of my brother's sins floating around in it."

In an almost perfect imitation of his grandfather, he asked: "Do you confess your sins?" "I do', replied the cousin. "Then," said the grandson, "I baptized thee in the name of the Father and of the Son and into the hole-ye-go".
