I asked God, "What you think about religion?"
God laughed.
I asked God, "What you think about spirituality?"

The local priest was often seen talking to a beautiful woman of bad reputation, and in public places. He became a public scandal for this apparently unwise behavior.
His bishop summoned him to scold him. The priest replied, "Your Excellency, I've always thought it better to talk to a lovely woman in public with my mind full of thoughts of God than to pray to God alone with my thoughts filled with a pretty woman."
When the monk goes to the bar, the bar becomes his cell.
When the alcoholic goes to a cell, the cell becomes his bar.
