Our Boys Made it

A rabbi once asked his old friend, a priest, "Could you ever be promoted within your Church?"
The priest says, thoughtfully, "Well, I could become a bishop."
The rabbi persists, "And after that?"
With a pause for consideration, the priest replies, "Maybe I could be a cardinal, even."
"And then?"
After thinking for some time, the priest responds, "Someday I may even rise to be the Pope."
But the rabbi is still not satisfied. "And then?"
With an air of incredulity, the priest cries, "What more could I become? God Himself?"
The rabbi says quietly, "One of our boys made it."

Multiply

The Flood is over and the ark has landed. Noah lets all the animals out and says, "Go forth and multiply."

A few months later, Noah decides to take a stroll and see how the animals are doing. Everywhere he looks he finds baby animals. Everyone is doing fine except for one pair of little snakes. "What's the problem?" says Noah. "Cut down some trees and let us live there", say the snakes.

Noah follows their advice. Several more weeks pass. Noah checks on the snakes again. Lots of little snakes, everybody is happy. Noah asks, "Want to tell me how the trees helped?"

"Certainly", say the snakes. "We're adders, so we need logs to multiply."

It Only Works In The Dark

A parish priest calls the Mother Superior into his office and says, "There is something I must show you. Please come into my private room and close the blinds."

"Father!" exclaims the shocked Mother Superior. "What did you say?"

"What I said was ... " the priest begins.

"I heard what you said ... I just can't believe you're saying it," interrupts the Mother Superior.

"Well, I really need you to come in," the priest says. Curious now, she does as he asks.

"Here now, sit on the bed beside me," he says.

"I must get out of here," the nun replies.

"Aren't you the least bit curious?" asks the priest. She is, so she cautiously sits down beside him.

"Now get under the covers," instructs the priest.

"I can't do that!" she replies.

"But it doesn't work otherwise," the priest says. After much coaxing, she gets under the covers with him.

"Now, come closer," he whispers. Nervously, she moves closer to him.

"See, my new watch does glow in the dark!!" he whispers happily.

Oh Canada!

On the sixth day God turned to the Gabriel and said: "Today, I am going to create a land called Canada. It will be a land of outstanding natural beauty. It shall have tall, majestic mountains full of mountain goats and eagles. It will have beautiful sparkling lakes bountiful with bass and trout, forests full of elk and moose, high cliffs overlooking sandy beaches with an abundance of sea life, and rivers stocked with salmon."

God continued, "I shall make the land rich in oil so as to make the inhabitants prosper, I shall call these inhabitants Canadians, and they shall be known as the most friendly people on the earth." "But Lord," asked Gabriel, "don't you think you are being too generous to these Canadians?"

"Not really," replied God, "just wait and see the neighbors I am going to give them."

Jesus and Drugs

Jesus is sitting down one day and is visioning the high rate of drug consumption on earth in later years. He thought it was a bit hypocritical of him to condemn them without first trying them himself, so he sent his apostles out to find what drugs they could.

The secret operation is effected and two days later the commissioned Jesus, waiting at the door, hears a knock: "Who is it?" "It's Paul"
Jesus opens the door.
"What did you bring Paul?"
"Hashish from Morocco"
another knock ...
"Who is it?"
"It's Mark"
Jesus opens the door.
"What did you bring Mark?"
"Marijuana from Colombia"
another knock ...
"Who is it?"
"It's Matthew"
Jesus opens the door.
"What did you bring Matthew ?"
"Cocaine from Bolivia"
This continues for a while until finally there's a 12th knock on the door"Who is it?"
"It's Judas"
Jesus opens the door.
"What did you bring Judas?"
"FBI!"
