"Life Begins..."
A Catholic priest, a Protestant minister, and a Jewish
rabbi were discussing when life begins.
"Life begins," said the priest, "at the moment of
fertilization. That is when G~d instills the spark
of life into the fetus."
"We believe," said the minister, "that life begins at
birth, because that is when the baby becomes an
individual and is capable of making its own decisions
and must learn about sin."
"You're both wrong," said the rabbi. "Life begins
when the children have graduated from college
and moved out of the house."

"Skinny Dipping"
A minister, a priest and a rabbi went for a
hike one day. It was very hot. They were
sweating and exhausted when they came
upon a small lake. Since it was fairly
secluded, they took off all their clothes
and jumped in the water.
Feeling refreshed, the trio decided to pick
a few berries while enjoying their "freedom."
As they were crossing an open area, who
should come along but a group of ladies
from town.
Unable to get to their clothes in time, the
minister and the priest covered their privates
and the rabbi covered his face while they
ran for cover.
After the ladies had left, and the men got
their clothes back on, the minister and the
priest asked the rabbi why he covered his
face rather than his privates.
The rabbi replied, "I don't know about you,
but in MY congregation, it's my face they
would recognize."
