Joke

Got this from a friend, (Great Joke Juan), Don’t know where he got it….but it’s really funny.

THE POPE & HARBINDER SINGH
About a century or two ago, the Pope decided that
all
the Sikhs had to leave Italy. Naturally there was a
big
uproar from the Sikh community. So the Pope
made a
deal. He would have a religious debate with a
member
of the Sikh community. If the Sikh won, the Sikhs
could stay. If the Pope won, the Sikhs would leave.
The Sikhs realized that they had no choice. So
they
picked a middle- aged man named Harbinder
Singh
to represent them. Harbinder asked for one
additional
condition to the debate. To make it more
interesting,
neither side would be allowed to talk. The Pope
agreed.

The day of the great debate came. Harbinder Singh
and the Pope sat opposite each other for a full
minute. Then the Pope raised his hand and
showed
three fingers. Harbinder looked back at him and
raised one finger. The Pope waved his fingers in a
circle around his head. Harbinder pointed to the
ground where he sat. The Pope pulled out a wafer
and a glass of wine. Harbinder pulled out an apple.

The Pope stood up and said, "I give up. This man
is
too good. The Sikhs can stay." An hour later, the
cardinals were gathered around the Pope asking
him
what had happened. The Pope said, "First I held
up
three fingers to represent the holy trinity. He
responded by holding up one finger to remind me
that
there was still one God common to both our
religions.
Then I waved my finger around me to show him
that
God was all around us. He responded by pointing
to
the ground and showing that God was also right
here
with us. I pulled out the wine and wafer to show
that
God absolves us from our sins. He pulled out an
apple
to remind me of original sin. He had an answer for
everything. What could I do?"

Meanwhile, the Sikh community had crowded
around
Harbinder Singh. "What happened?" they
asked. "Well," said Harbinder, "First he said to me
that the Sikhs had three days to get out of here. I
told
him to f*@k off and not one of us was leaving.
Then
he told me that this whole city would be cleared of
Sikhs. I let him know that we were staying right
here." "Yes, and then???" asked the crowd. "I
don’t
know", said Harbinder, "He took out his lunch, and
I
took out mine!!
