The Priest and the Rabbi
A priest and a rabbi were sitting next to each other in an airplane.
After a while, the priest turned to the rabbi and asked, 'Is it still
a requirement of your faith that you not eat ****k?'
The rabbi responded, 'Yes, that is still one of our laws.'
The priest then asked, 'Have you ever eaten ****k?'
To which the rabbi replied, 'Yes, on one occasion I did succumb to
temptation and tasted a ham sandwich.'
The priest nodded in understanding and went on with his reading.
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
temptations of the flesh?'
The priest replied, 'Yes, rabbi, on one occasion I was weak and broke
with my
faith.'
The rabbi nodded understandingly and remained silent, thinking, for
about five
minutes.
Finally, the rabbi said, 'Beats the hell out of a ham sandwich,
doesn't it?
