A priest is called away from his church for an emergency. Not wanting
to leave the confessional unmanned he calls his rabbi friend and asks
if he could stand in for him. The rabbi says he wouldn't know what to
do, but the priest says he'd show him everything he needs to know. The
rabbi agrees, comes over, and sits by the priest in the confessional.
Within a few minutes, a woman comes in.
Woman: "Father forgive me for I have sinned."
Priest: "What did you do?"
Woman: "I committed adultery."
Priest: "How many times?"
Woman: "Three times."
Priest: "Say two Hail Marys, put £5 in the box, and go and sin no
more."
A few minutes later another woman enters the confessional.
Woman: "Father forgive me for I have sinned."
Priest: "What did you do?"
Woman: "I committed adultery."
Priest: "How many times?"
Woman: "Three times."
Priest: "Say two Hail Marys, put £5 in the box, and go and sin no
more."
The rabbi tells the priest that he thinks he's got it so the priest
leaves.
A few minutes later another woman enters.
Woman: "Father forgive me for I have sinned."
Rabbi: "What did you do?"
Woman: "I committed adultery."
Rabbi: "How many times?"
Woman: "Just once."
Rabbi: "Go and do it two more times. We have a special this week,
three for £5."
