A Rabbi, a Hindu and a Television Evangelist were driving late at night in the country when their car conked out. They set out to find help and came to a farmhouse.
When they knocked at the door, the farmer explained that he had only two beds, and one of the three had to sleep in the barn with the animals. The three quickly agreed. The Rabbi said he would sleep in the barn and let the other two have the beds.
Ten minutes after the Rabbi left, there was a knock on the bedroom door. The Rabbi entered exclaiming, "I can't sleep in the barn; there is a pig in there. It's against my religion to sleep in the same room with a pig!"
The Hindu said he would sleep in the barn, as he had no religious problem with pigs. However, about five minutes later, the Hindu burst through the bedroom door saying, "There's a cow in the barn! I can't sleep in the same room as a cow! It's against my religion!"
The Television Evangelist, anxious to get to sleep, said he'd go to the barn, as he had no problem sleeping with animals. Two minutes later, the bedroom door burst open and the pig and the cow entered....
The Muslim said he would sleep in the barn since he wouldn't sleep with non-mooselimbs, waited until the other three were asleep, cut their throats, put both beds together, and went to sleep!
A Rabbi, A Hindu, a Priest, and a Moslem go into a bar.
The bartender looks up and says:
'What is this, a joke?'
LOL, thanks, I liked this one.
(to tell the truth, one of my daughters just told it to me: got it from The Reader's Digest!)
A priest and a rabbi are seated together on a plane eating there in flight meal
After a while, the priest turns to the rabbi and asks: "Is it still a requirement of your faith that you not eat pork?"
The rabbi responds: "Yes, that is still one of our beliefs."
The priest then asks: "Have you ever eaten pork?"
To which the rabbi replies: "Yes, on one occasion, I did succumb to temptation and tasted a ham sandwich."
The priest nodded in understanding and went on with his meal.
A while later, the rabbi spoke up and asked the priest: "Father, is it still a requirement of your church that you remain celibate?"
The priest replied: "Yes, that is still very much a part of our faith."
The rabbi then asked him: "Father, have you ever fallen to the temptation of the flesh?"
The priest replied: "Yes, rabbi, on one occasion I was weak and broke with my faith."
The rabbi nodded understandingly and then they sat silent for about five minutes,…
Then the rabbi spoke again to the priest: "Beats a ham sandwich, doesn't it?"
This week, I saw a sign outside of a church that said:
Praise Jesus. Pig roast Sunday.
The Rabbi taps his yarmulke. "Kevlar helmet," he says. Then he taps his clothing. "Kevlar vest." Nodding wisely, he added, "A fool may blow himself up, but God gives us the wisdom to protect ourselves from fools."
