RELIGIOUS JOKES Three young candidates for the priesthood are told by the Monsignor they have to pass one more test: The Celibacy Test. The Monsignor leads them into a room, and tells them to undress, and a small bell is tied to each man's penis. In comes a beautiful woman, wearing a sexy belly-dancer costume. She begins to dance sensually around the first candidate... Ting-a-ling "Oh Patrick," says the Monsignor, "I am so disappointed in your lack of control. Go take a long, cold shower and pray about your carnal weakness." The candidate leaves. The dancer continues, dancing around the second candidate, slowly peeling off her layers of veils. As the last veil drops: Ding-a-ling! "Joseph, Joseph," sighs the Monsignor. "You too are unable to withstand your carnal desires. Go take a long, cold shower and pray for forgiveness." The dancer then proceeds to dance her sensuous dance around the third candidate. Slowly around him she dances, now devoid of all of her veils, but the third candidate remains unmoved. "Michael, my son, I am truly proud of you," says the Monsignor. "Only you have the true strength of character needed to become a priest". Now, go and join your weaker brethen in the shower..." Ting-a-ling-ling!!! ------oooOOOooo------ A police officer had just pulled over a car full of nuns for going too slow on a major highway. The conversation went like this: Police officer: "Why were you driving so slowly?" Nun driver: "I kept seeing all these signs with the number 20 on them and figured that was the speed limit." Police officer: "No, Sister, that is the highway number." Nun: "Oh, I'm so sorry, Officer, I didn't know that." Then the police officer looks into the back seat and sees that the nuns there have panic-stricken faces and white knuckles from holding on to each other too tightly. Police officer: "What's wrong with the nuns in the back seat?" Nun: "Oh, we just got off Highway 101 a few miles ago." ------oooOOOooo------ Moses, Jesus and another guy are out playing golf. Moses pulls up to the tee and drives a long one. It lands in the fairway but rolls directly toward a water hazard. Quickly Moses raises his club, the water parts and the ball rolls to the other side, safe and sound. Next, Jesus strolls up to the tee and hits a nice long one directly toward the same water hazard. It lands in the exact center of the pond and hovers over the water. Jesus casually walks out onto the pond and chips it up and into the hole. The third guy gets up and randomly whacks the ball. It flies over a fence and into oncoming traffic in the street. It bounces off a truck and hits a tree. From there it bounces onto the roof of a nearby shack and rolls into the gutter, down the drainpipe, out onto the fairway and right toward the aforementioned pond. On the way to the pond it hits a little stone and bounces out over the water onto a lily pad, where it rests quietly. Suddenly, a very large bullfrog jumps onto the lily pad and snatches the ball in its mouth. An eagle swoops down, grabs the frog and flies away. As they pass over the green, the frog squeals with fright and drops the ball, which bounces right in for a beautiful hole in one. Moses turns to Jesus and says, "I hate playing with your Dad!" ------oooOOOooo------ "Noah's Ark Today" And the Lord spoke to Noah and said, "In six months I'm going to make it rain until the whole earth is covered with water and all the evil people are destroyed. But I want to save a few good people, and two of every kind of living thing on the planet. I am commanding you to build an Ark." And in a flash of lightning, He delivered the specifications for an Ark. "Okay," said Noah, trembling with fear and fumbling with the blueprints. Six months passed, the skies clouded up and rain began to fall. The Lord saw that there was no Ark. "Noah," shouted the Lord, "Where is the Ark?" "Lord, please forgive me!" begged Noah. "I did my best. But there were big problems. First, I had to get a building permit for the Ark construction project, and your plans didn't meet code. So I had to hire an engineer to re-draw the plans. Then I got into a big fight over whether or not the Ark needed a fire sprinkler system. "Then my neighbor objected, claiming I was violating zoning by building the Ark in my front yard, so I had to get a variance from the city planning commission. "Then I had problems getting enough wood for the Ark, because there was a ban on cutting trees to save the Spotted Owl. I had to convince the U.S. Fish and Wildlife that I need the wood to save the Owls. But they wouldn't let me catch any owls. So, no owls. "The carpenters formed a union and went out on strike. I had to negotiate a settlement with the National Labor Relations Board before anyone would pick up a saw or hammer. Now we have sixteen carpenters going on the boat, and still no owls. "Just when I got the suit dismissed, EPA notified me that I couldn't complete the Ark without filing an environmental impact statement on your proposed flood. They didn't take kindly to the idea that they had no jurisdiction over the conduct of a Supreme Being. "Then the Army Corp of Engineers wanted a map of the proposed new flood plain. I sent them a globe. The IRS has seized all my assets, claiming I'm trying to avoid paying taxes by leaving the country. I really don't think I can finish the Ark for at least another five years," The sky began to clear. The sun began to shine. A rainbow arched across the sky. Noah looked up and smiled. "You mean you're not going to destroy the earth?" Noah asked hopefully. "No," said the Lord sadly. "The government already has."
