The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

A priest wants to go on vacation

So he calls his rabbi friend and asks if he would handle his parish for a month.

The rabbi replies "I guess. I can definitely handle the sermons as I'll just preach from the old testament but I wouldn't have a clue what to do with the confessional."

"Confessions are easy," the priest says. "Just watch me and you'll get the idea."

So the priest goes in the confession box and a woman comes up. "Forgive me father for I have sinned. I slept with 2 men."

The priest replies "say two Hail Marys, put a dollar in the collection box and you will be forgiven."

The woman thanks him and leaves.

The next woman comes up:

"Forgive me father for I have sinned. I slept with 2 men."

The priest replies "say two Hail Marys, put a dollar in the collection box and you will be forgiven."

The woman thanks him and leaves.

The next woman approaches.

"Forgive me father for I have sinned. I slept with 2 men."

The priest replies "say two Hail Marys, put a dollar in the collection box and you will be forgiven."

The woman thanks him and leaves.

"This is easy," the rabbi says. "I can handle it."

"You take the next one and I'll watch" the priest replies.

So the rabbi goes in the confession box and the next woman approaches.

"Forgive me father for I have sinned. I slept with a man."

The rabbi replies "so sleep with another, they're 2 for a dollar."
