A RABBI AND A CATHOLIC PRIEST are sitting on a bus...

After a bit, the priest turns to the Rabbi and asks: "Is it still a requirement of your faith that you not eat pork?"

The Rabbi responds: "Yes, that is still one of our beliefs.

The Priest then asks: "Have you ever eaten pork?"

To which the Rabbi quickly looks away, then faces his newly-met companion and replies: "Yes, on one occasion I did succumb to the temptation and tasted a ham sandwich."

A while later, the Rabbi speaks up and asks the Priest, "Father, is it still a requirement of your church that you remain celibate?"

The Priest replies: "Yes, that is still very much a part of our faith.”

The Rabbi then asks him: "Father, have you ever fallen prey to the temptations of the flesh?"

The Priest frowns, but replies: "Yes, rabbi, on one occasion I was weak and broke with my faith."

The Rabbi nods understandingly and remains silently thinking for a minute or two.

Finally, he says:

"Beats a ham sandwich, doesn't it?”
