Two Beggars


Two beggars were sitting on a park bench in Ireland. One was holding a cross and the other a Star of David, but both were holding hats to collect contributions.

As people walked by, they lifted their noses at the man with the Star of David and dropped money into the hat of the man with the cross. Soon the hat of the man with the cross was filled while the hat of the man with the Star of David remained empty.

A priest watched for a while and then approached the men. He said to the man with the Star of David, "Don't you realize that this is a Catholic country? You'll never get any contributions holding a Star of David."

The man turned to the one with the cross and said, "Moishe, can you imagine? This goy is trying to tell us how to run our business?"
