The priest nodded wisely and with sympathy. 'Son,' he said, 'that's the problem with you Protestants, you can't tell the difference between a simple blessing and last rites.'

And that's the problem with priests. When they're not supporting gambling, they're assuming that everyone not properly catechized must be a Protestant.

As a Methodist, I found it very funny, just like the joke about the Catholic kid going into a Methodist sanctuary and ask when they got robbed!

You're trying to score theological points off an ancient, dumb, and theologically incorrect (horses can't receive sacraments) joke?

How many priests do you know personally, Alex? Even one?

Ohhh, another category; "priests can only be the butt (please, lets let that one go...) of the joke protestants"

Thanks Alex

Lighten up Francis. Is there really anything derogatory in a Protestant not knowing Catholic rites?
