A priest and a rabbi were sitting next to each other on an airplane.

Priest turned to the rabbi and asked,
Is it still a requirement of your faith that you not eat pork?
The rabbi responded, yes that is still one of our laws.

The priest then asked, have you ever eaten pork?
To which the rabbi replied, yes on one occasion I did succumb to temptation and tasted a ham sandwich.

The priest nodded in understanding and went on with his reading.
A while later the rabbi spoke up and asked the priest,

Is it still a requirement of your church that you remain celibate?
The priest replied, yes that is still very much a part of our faith.

The rabbi then asked him, have you ever fallen to the temptations of the flesh? The priest replied, yes rabbi on one occasion I was weak and broke my faith.

The rabbi nodded understandingly, remained silent and sat thinking for about five minutes. Finally the rabbi says.

Beats the heck out of a ham sandwich, doesn't it? !
