discussing the decline
in morals in the modern world.
"I didn't sleep with my wife
before I was married," said one
clergyman self-righteously, "Did

"I don't know," said the other. "What was her maiden name?"

A drunk man
who smelled like a beer sat
down on a subway seat next to a priest.
The man's tie was
stained, his face was smeared with red lipstick, and
a half empty
bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn coat pocket. He
opened his
newspaper and began to read. After a few minutes the man
turned to
the priest and asked 'Say Father, what causes arthritis?' The
priest replies 'My son, it's caused by loose living, being with cheap
wicked women, too much alcohol and comtempt for your fellow man'
'Well I'll be darned' the drunk muttered, returning to his newspaper.
The priest thinking about what he said, nudged the drunk and
apologised. 'I'm sorry to come on so strong. How long have you had
arthritis?'
'I don't have it, Father. I was just reading
here that the Pope
does.'

A Baptist missionary was walking in Africa
when he
heard the ominous padding of a lion behind him. "Oh Lord,"
prayed the
missionary, "Grant in Thy goodness that the lion walking
behind me
is a good Christian lion."
And then, in the silence that
followed, the missionary heard the lion
praying too: "Oh Lord," he
prayed, "I thank Thee for the food which I
am about to receive."

Delivering a speech at a banquet on the
night of his arrival in a large city, a visiting minister told several
anecdotes he expected to repeat at meetings the next
day.
Because he wanted to use the jokes again, he requested the reporters to
omit them from any accounts they might turn in to their
newspapers.
A cub reporter, in commenting on the speech, ended his piece
with the
following: "The minister told a number of stories that cannot
be
published."
