Christian Pet

This very Christian couple felt it important to own an equally Christian pet. So, after careful inquiry, they went shopping at a kennel specializing in Christian dogs. They found a dog they liked quite a lot. When they asked the dog to fetch the Bible, he did it in a flash. When they instructed him to look up Psalm 23, he complied equally fast, using his paws with dexterity. They were impressed; they immediately purchased the animal, and went home (piously, of course).
That night they had friends over. They were so proud of their new Christian dog and his major skills, they called the dog and showed off.

The friends were impressed, and asked whether the dog was able to do any of the usual dog tricks, as well. This stopped the couple cold, as they hadn't thought about "normal" tricks.
Well, they said, "Let's try this out." Once more they called the dog, and they clearly pronounced the command, "Heel!"
Quick as a wink, the dog jumped up, put his paw on the guest's forehead, closed his eyes in concentration, and bowed his head.

A priest decides to take a walk to the pier near his church. He looks around and finally stops to watch a fisherman load his boat. The fisherman notices, and asks the priest if he would like to join him for a couple of hours. The priest agrees. The fisherman asks if the priest has ever fished before, to which the priest says no. He baits the hook for him and says, "Give it a shot father".

After a few minutes, the priest hooks a big fish and struggles to get it in the boat. The fisherman says "Whoa, what a big sonofabitch!" The Priest says, "Uh, please sir, can you mind your language?"

The Fisherman responds (THINKING QUICKLY), "I'm sorry father, but that's what this fish is called - a sonofabitch!" "Oh, I'm sorry", replied the Priest. "I didn't know." After the trip, the priest brings the fish to the church and spots the bishop. "Eminence, look at this big sonofabitch!"

"Please Father", said the Bishop. "Mind your language, this is a house of God." "No, you don't understand", said the Priest. "That's what this fish is called, and I caught it. I caught this sonofabitch!"

"Hmmm", said the Bishop. "You know, I could clean this sonofabitch and we could have it for dinner." So the Bishop takes the fish and cleans it, and brings it to Mother Superior at the convent. "Mother Superior could you cook this sonofabitch for dinner tonight?"

"My lord, what language!", said the Mother Superior. "No, Sister", said the Bishop. "That's what the fish is called - a sonofabitch! Father caught it, I cleaned it, and we'd like you to cook it." "Hmmm", replied Mother Superior. "Yes, I'll cook that sonofabitch tonight."

While the Pope is over for dinner that evening he remarks that the fish is great. He asks where they got it. "I caught the sonofabitch!", said the Priest. "And I cleaned the sonofabitch!", said the Bishop. "And I cooked the sonofabitch!", said the Mother Superior.

The Pope stares at them for a minute with a steely gaze, but then takes off his hat, pulls out a fresh Havana cigar and lights it, puts his feet up on the table, and says, "You know, you fuckers are all right".
