Old Clergymen - Humor
Three old longtime friends — A Presbyterian minister, a Catholic priest, and a Rabbi — got together and were discussing funerals when the question came up, “When you are in your casket and your friends and family and congregates are mourning over you, what would you like to hear them say?”
The Presbyterian minister said, “I would like to hear them say that I was a wonderful husband, a great spiritual leader, and a fine family man.”
The Catholic priest said, “I would like to hear them say that I was a wonderful teacher and servant of God that made a huge difference in the lives of others.”
The Rabbi then replies, “I would like to hear them say …Look! He’s moving!”

It seems the Presbyterian minister went on his way, leaving the old Priest and Rabbi still conversing. The Priest turns to the Rabbi and says, “Is it still a requirement of your faith that you not eat pork?”
The Rabbi responds, “Well, yes, it is still a requirement of our faith.”
The Priest then asks, “Well, have you ever in your life eaten pork?”
To which the Rabbi replies, “Yes, on one occasion I did succomb to temptation and tasted of pork.”
The Priest nodded in understanding. Moments later the Rabbi spoke up and asked the Priest, “Father, is it still a requirement of your church that you remain celebate?”
The Priest replied, “Yes, that is still very much a part of our faith.”
The Rabbi then asked, “Father, have you ever fallen to the temptations of the flesh?”
The Priest replied, “Yes, on one occasion I was weak and broke with my faith.”
The Rabbi, too, nodded with understanding, and then moments later said, “A lot better than pork, wasn’t it?”
