"An Priest and a Rabbi"
An Irish Priest and a Rabbi found themselves sharing
a compartment on a train. After a while, the Priest
opened a conversation by saying "I know that, in your
religion, you're not supposed to eat pork... Have you
actually ever tasted it?
The Rabbi said, "Well, I must tell the truth. Yes, I have,
on the odd occasion."
Then the Rabbi had his turn of interrogation. He asked,
"Your religion, too... I know you're supposed to be
celibate. But...."
The Priest replied, "Yes, I know what you're going to ask.
I have succumbed once or twice."
There was silence for a while.
Then the Rabbi peeped around the newspaper he was
reading and inquired,
"Er... Better than pork, isn't it?"

"How High Can You Go?"
A Rabbi and a Priest were sitting together on a train, and
the Rabbi leans over and asks, "So how high can you
advance in your organization?"
The Priest says, "If I am lucky, I guess I could become a
Bishop."
"Well, could you get any higher than that?" asks the Rabbi.
"I suppose that if my works are seen in a very good light
that I might be made an Arch Bishop," said the Priest a bit
cautiously.
"Is there any way that you might go higher than that?"
"If all the Saints should smile, I guess I could be made a
Cardinal," said the priest.
"Could you be anything higher than a Cardinal?" probed the
Rabbi.
Hesitating a little bit, the Priest said, "I suppose that I could
be elected Pope, but..."
Then the Rabbi says "And could you be anything higher than
that? Is there any way to go up from being the Pope?"
"What!?! Do you want me to become the Messiah Himself!?!"
The Rabbi leaned back and said, "One of our boys made it."
