You heard about the guy who got permission to take it with him, so he fills a suitcase with gold, and when he gets to the pearly gates, St Peter asks him, :You brought—pavement???"
Well, if it encourages him to read the Bible, he might come across some applicable stories. I vaguely recall a story of W.C. Field looking for loopholes in the Bible.
So, officer O’Malley comes into the back room at the Italian restaurant, only to find a priest, a rabbi and a minister sitting on the floor with dice and cash in plain view. It is obvious that they are illegally gambling, but the cop hasn’t actually seen them doing it. So, he turns to the priest and says, “Father, have you been gambling?”
The priest says a quick Hail Mary, then says, “No.”
The cop turns to the minister and says, “Reverend, have you been gambling?.
The minister says a short prayer asking Jesus for forgiveness, then he also denies gambling.
Frustrated, he asks the rabbi if he has been gambling. The rabbi responds, “With whom?”
