A little HOLY HUMOR
One Sunday morning, a mother went in to wake her son and tell him it was
time to get ready for church, to which he replied, "I'm not going."
I'll give you two good reasons," he said. "(1), they don't like me, and
(2), I don't like them."
His mother replied, "I'll give YOU two good reasons why YOU SHOULD go to
church. (1) You're 59 years old, and (2) you're the pastor!"
A Jewish Rabbi and a Catholic Priest met
at the town's annual 4th of July picnic.
Old friends, they began their usual
banter.
"This baked ham is really delicious," the
priest teased the rabbi. "You really ought
to try it. I know it's against your
religion, but I can't understand why such a
wonderful food should be forbidden! You
don't know what you're missing. You just
haven't lived until you've tried Mrs. Hall's
prized Virginia Baked Ham. Tell me, Rabbi,
when are you going to break down and try
it?"
The rabbi looked at the priest with a big grin, and said,
"At your wedding."
An elderly woman walked into the local country church. The
friendly usher greeted her at the door and helped her up the
flight of steps, "Where would you like to sit?" he asked
politely.
"The front row please," she answered.
"You really don't want to do that," the usher said "The pastor
is really boring."
"Do you happen to know who I am?" the woman inquired.
"I'm the pastor's mother," she replied indignantly.
"Do you know who I am?" he asked.
A kindergarten teacher gave her class a "show and tell"
assignment. Each student was instructed to bring in an object
to share with the class that represented their religion. The
first student got up in front of the class and said, "My name
is Benjamin and I am Jewish and this is a Star of David.."
The second student got up in front of the class and said, "My
name is Mary. I'm a Catholic and this is a Rosary."
The third student got in up front of the class and said, "My
name is Tommy. I am Methodist, and this is a casserole."
A priest, a minister and a guru sat discussing the best
positions for prayer, while a telephone repairman worked
nearby.
"Kneeling is definitely the best way to pray," the priest
said.
"No," said the minister. "I get the best results standing with
my hands outstretched to Heaven."
"You're both wrong," the guru said. "The most effective prayer
position is lying down on the floor."
The repairman could contain himself no longer. "Hey, fellas,"
he interrupted. "The best prayin' I ever did was when I was
hangin' upside down from a telephone pole."
A well-worn one-dollar bill and a similarly distressed
twenty-dollar bill arrived at a Federal Reserve Bank to be
retired. As they moved along the conveyor belt to be burned,
they struck up a conversation. The twenty-dollar bill
reminisced about its travels all over the country.
"I've had a pretty good life," the twenty proclaimed. "Why
I've been to Las Vegas and Atlantic City , the finest
restaurants in New York , performances on Broadway, and even a
cruise to the Caribbean "
"Wow!" said the one-dollar bill. "You've really had an
exciting life!"
"So tell me," says the twenty, "where have you been throughout
your lifetime?"
The one dollar bill replies, "Oh, I've been to the Methodist
Church , the Baptist Church , the Lutheran Church ."
The twenty-dollar bill interrupts, "What's a church?"
The young couple invited their elderly pastor for Sunday
dinner. While they were in the kitchen preparing the meal, the
minister asked their son what they were having. "Goat," the
little boy replied.
"Goat?" replied the startled man of the cloth, "Are you sure
about that?"
"Yep," said the youngster. "I heard Dad say to Mom, 'Today is
just as good as any to have the old goat for dinner."
Lord, keep Your arm around my shoulder and Your hand over my mouth
