Monastery Life

A young monk arrives at the monastery. He is
assigned to helping the other monks in copying
the old canons and laws of the church by hand.

He notices, however, that all of the monks are
copying from copies, not from the original
manuscript. So, the new monk goes to the head
abbot to question this, pointing out that if
someone made even a small error in the first
copy, it would never be picked up! In fact, that
error would be continued in all of the subsequent
copies.

The head monk, says, "We have been copying from
the copies for centuries, but you make a good
point, my son."

He goes down into the dark caves underneath the
monastery
where the original manuscripts are held as
archives in a locked
vault that hasn't been opened for hundreds of
years. Hours go
by and nobody sees the old abbot.

So, the young monk gets worried and goes down to
look for him. He sees him banging his head
against the wall and wailing,
"We missed the " R " ! , we missed the " R " !"

His forehead is all bloody and bruised and he is
crying
uncontrollably. The young monk asks the old
abbot, "What's wrong, father?"

With A choking voice, the old abbot replies, "The
word was celebrate!"
Just a lil Fishi3... Glub, Glub.

Oh gosh I nearly peed my self Warning never ever read a Fishi joke before you go to the bathroom, I found a lot of humor in this because I work at the church and deal with priest on a daily basis, so to me this was more than funny. those pious Bastards serves them right.

Well, i know a history a local priest once told me, a true story.

One of his class mates from university studies was in greece, and, as theology students they also studied ancient GREEK, although not the modern greek and vocabulary.

But, the guy tried anyway. He was trying to ask for when the ferry was going:

He walked to a local greek person, saying to him: "hail slave, when do the galley go for the isles".

The poor greek person didnt understand one jot, since the greek the student tried using was old greek, really old.
