Interfaith Humor

Yesterday, my dad told me this joke he heard:  Two friends, a Jewish lady and a Catholic lady, have known each other for years.  One day they're having lunch and a few drinks and the Jewish lady says, "We've been friends for so many years and I'd like to ask you a couple questions and I hope you don't mind because it's about religion." Her friend says, "No problem."  The Jewish lady says, "Do you really believe that Jesus walked on water?" The Catholic lady says, "Well, he actually could've been walking on the tops of rocks that were just under the water and you couldn't see the rocks, so everyone thought he was walking on water."  The Jewish lady then says, "And what about turning water into wine?  You think that really happened?" And the Catholic lady says, "Well, probably at the Last Supper they were drinking wine and Jesus thought his glass was empty and he put some water in and the little red wine that was left turned the water red.  So everyone thought he'd turned water into wine."  And the Catholic lady continues, "Let's talk about the Red Sea.  Moses parted the Red Sea and the Jews walked across the dry land without getting wet?" And the Jewish lady answers with pride, 'Wasn't that something?"
