No Need to Lie
Once a week, a rabbi invited a priest and a minister over to play cards for money. Unfortunately, the town's notoriously strict police chief caught them and brought all three before the local court.
After hearing the chief's accusation, the judge sternly asked the priest, "Father, do you admit to gambling?"
The priest looked heavenward and whispered, "Lord, forgive me." Then he turned to the judge and said loudly, "No, Your Honor. I was not gambling."
The judge asked the minister the same question. The minister repeated the priest's gesture and declared, "No, Your Honor. I never even touched a card."
Finally, the judge turned to the rabbi. "Were you caught in the act of gambling?"
The rabbi looked surprised. "Gambling? With whom?"
