Can any of you produce a legitimate Priest and a Rabbi joke?  I can't, I've never heard one.  Don't give me something you made up yourself, I need to know, is there an EXISTING punchline to this joke?

I think it's just a general humorous setup, but the person who came up with the original Priest and a Rabbi joke had no punchline for it.  The setup got released into the public, and people just repeat the words "A Priest and a Rabbi walk into a bar..." and then nothing happens.  Nothing ever happens, because it's just a metajoke. Any punchline originated a while AFTER the joke began.

I have never heard anyone finish that joke, but someone somewhere must have a punchline. So you people tell me: What happens when A Priest and a Rabbi walk into a bar...

I've heard a couple versions of jokes that start like this. One of them adds another person and goes:

"A priest and a rabbi walk into a bar, a shaman ducked."

QuoteA priest and a rabbi walk in to a bar

And the bartender says, "What is this? Some kind of joke?"

or
QuoteA priest and a rabbi are walking to a bar and see a 5 year old on a swing

The priest nudges the rabbi and says "Hey, let's go screw that kid." The rabbi says, "Out of what?"

Those are the two versions I've ever heard.

Recusant

As far as I know, the original (it's been around for a very long time; sorry I'm not better at telling jokes) is a conversation that goes something like this:

Priest: You know, I've heard that your people cannot eat pork, but I was wondering, have you ever even tried it?

Rabbi: Yes, I'm afraid that on one occasion I had a ham sandwich, and I admit that it was rather nice.  But tell me something, Father: I know that you have taken a vow of celibacy, but have you ever been with a woman?

Priest: Yes, on one occasion I succumbed to temptation and broke my vow.

Rabbi: It's a lot better than an ham sandwich, huh?

I think this one could be adapted.
