PSALMS

A priest was driving along and saw a nun on the side of the road; he stopped and offered her a lift, which she accepted. She got in and crossed her legs forcing her gown to open and reveal a lovely leg. The priest had a look and nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthfully slid his hand up her leg. The nun looked at him and immediately said:
"Father, remember Psalm 129?"
The priest was flustered and apologized profusely. He forced himself to remove his hand. However, he was unable to remove his eyes from her leg. Further on while changing gear, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once again said:
"Father, remember Psalm 129?"
Once again the priest apologized:
"Sorry sister, but the flesh is weak."
Arriving at the convent, the nun got out gave him a meaningful glance and went on her way.
On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to retrieve a bible and looked up psalm 129. It said:
"Go forth and seek further up, you will find glory."
MORAL OF THE STORY: Always be well informed in your job, or you might miss a great opportunity!

THE PRIEST AND THE RABBI

A priest and a rabbi were sitting next to each other on 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 pork?"
The rabbi responded:
"Yes, that is still one of our beliefs."
The priest then asked:
"Have you ever eaten pork?"
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 a ham sandwich, doesn't it?"
