Both told to me by clergymen.
A Missionary was in the jungle in darkest Africa one day when he came face to face with a ferocious looking Lion. He fell to his knees, closed his eyes and prayed as he had never prayed before.
After five minutes nothing had happened.
He cautiously opened one eye to see the lion down on all fours with it's eyes closed.
The Lion then opened one eye and said "What are you doing?"
The Missionary replied "Praying to Almighty God to save my life.....erm what are you doing?"
"Saying Grace" said the Lion.
During the week an absent minded clergyman lost his bicycle and spent the rest of the week trying to think where it could be.
On Sunday in Church, whilst reciting the "Ten Commandments" he got to number seven and remembered where he had left it.
I'll get my coat.
