A Catholic Priest and
a Rabbi were
chatting one day when the conversation turned to a
discussion of job
descriptions and promotion.
"What do you have to look forward to in
way of a promotion in your
job?" asked the Rabbi.
"Well,
I'm next in line for the Monsignor's job." replied the
Priest.
"Yes, and then what?" asked the Rabbi.
"Well, next I can
become Arch-Bishop." said the Priest.
"Yes, and then?" asked the
Rabbi.
"If I work real hard and do a good job as Arch-Bishop, it's
possible
for me to become a full Bishop." said the
Priest.
"O.K., then what?" asked the Rabbi.
The Priest, begining to get a
bit exasperated replied, "With some luck
and real hard work, maybe
I can become a Cardinal."
"And then?" asked the
Rabbi.
The Priest is really starting to get mad now and replies, "With lots
and lots of luck and some real difficult work and if I'm in the
right
places at the right times and play my political games just
right, maybe,
just maybe, I can get elected Pope."
"Yes, and
then what?" asked the Rabbi.
"Good grief!" shouted the Priest.
"What do you expect me to become,
GOD?"
"Well," said the
Rabbi, "One of our boys made it!"

A
young lad was visiting a church for
the first time, checking all the
announcements and posters along the
walls.
When he came to a group of pictures of men in uniform, he
asked a
nearby usher, "Who are all those men in the
pictures?"
The usher replied, "Why, those are our boys who died in the
service".
Dumbfounded, the youngster asked, "Was that the morning
service or the
evening service?"

A man sobering up from the night before is
sitting through the
Sunday sermon, finding it long and boring. Still
feeling hung over and
tired, he finally nods off.
The
priest has been watching him all along, noticing his apparent
hangover
and is disgusted. At the end of the sermon, the preacher decides to
make an example of him.
He says to his congregation, "All those
wishing to have a place in
heaven, please stand."
The whole
room stands up except, of course, the sleeping man.
Then the
preacher says even more loudly, "And he who would like to
find a
place in hell please STAND UP!"
The weary man catching only the
last part groggily stands up, only to
find that he's the only one
standing.
Confused and embarrassed he says, "I don't know what
we're voting on
here, Father, but it sure seems like you and me are
the only ones
standing for it!"
