... the Rabbi and Priest who decide to buy a new car together? The day after they bought it, the Rabbi found the Priest driving it. The Priest explained that he had just gone to the carwash because in his faith, it was customary to welcome a new member with the rite of baptism. The following day, the Priest observed the Rabbi cutting the end off the car's exhaust pipe.

Hannah comes home from her afternoon out with her boyfriend Max, looking very unhappy. 'What's the matter?' asks her mother.
'Max has asked me to marry him,' she replies.
'Mazeltov! But why are you looking so sad?' her mother asks, confused.
'Because he also told me he's an atheist. Oh mum, he doesn't even believe in hell!'
Her mother pats her on the shoulder. 'That's all right, Hannah. it isn't a problem. You can marry him, and between the two of us, we'll show him how wrong he is.'
