Just for laughs

Went to the Missionaries of Charity just now to share some thoughts on the Bible - we did the story of Moses' mother and sister today; and one of the sisters told a joke that I thought you'd enjoy.

There was a long-suffering man with a nagging wife who came to the Holyland on a tour. While touring, she suddenly died. The authorities offered the man two choices: bury her in the Holyland and pay $150 or bring the body back to their country which means paying $15,000. The man said he'll pay $15,000. The authorities were surprised and asked again if he was sure he wanted to pay that much and go through all the trouble. He said he was absolutely sure. Why they asked. He said "Because I heard someone once died here in the Holyland and he resurrected after 3 days!"
