Priest and Rabbi on a Train
An Irish priest and a Rabbi found themselves sharing a compartment on a train.
After a while, the priest opened a conversation by saying:
- I know that, in your religion, you're not supposed to eat pork... Have you actually ever tasted it?
The Rabbi said:
- I must tell the truth. Yes, I have, on the odd occasion.
Then the Rabbi had his turn of interrogation. He asked:
- Your religion, too... I know you're supposed to be celibate. But....
The priest replied:
- Yes, I know what you're going to ask. I have succumbed once or twice.
There was silence for a while. Then the Rabbi peeped around the newspaper he was reading and said:
- Better than pork, isn't it?
