A rabbi, a priest, and a minister are discussing what they do with donations to their respective religious organizations.
The minister says that he draws a circle on the floor, throws the money up in the air, and whatever lands in the circle, he gives to God, and whatever lands outside the circle, he keeps.
The priest uses a similar method. He draws the circle, but whatever lands outside the circle, he gives to God, and whatever lands inside, he keeps.
The rabbi has a slightly different method of dividing the money. He throws all the money up in the air. Whatever God wants, he keeps.

The catholic priest said, " I'll be honest. I like girls. I like to get laid at least once a week."
They looked at the baptist preacher. "Haven't you got any vices?" they asked.

Our local PBS outlet here has been showing a series of
Joseph Campbell lectures, as they always do when it's
time to wring a little money out of the viewers. On a
recent episode, the late Professor Campbell was talking

capable of making its own decisions and must learn about sin."
"You've both got it wrong," said the rabbi. "Life begins
when the children have graduated from college and moved out of
the house..."

A rabbi, burdened by the importance of his work, went into the synagogue to pray. Falling to his knees, he lamented, "O Lord, I am nothing! I am nothing!"
Just then a Jewish judge passed by and overhearing the prayer was moved to join the rabbi on his knees. Shortly, he too, was crying aloud, "O Lord, I too am nothing! I am nothing!"
The janitor of the temple, awed by the sight of the two men praying joined them, crying, "O Lord, I also am nothing! I am nothing!"
At this, the judge nudged the rabbi and said, "Now look who thinks he's nothing!"
