- Some years ago a boy was coming home from school when he met a priest. The priest started to talk about God and asked him if He was everywhere.
The boy replied "yes, Father". The priest then asked him if He was in his pocket. "No Father" replied the boy.
"Why" said the priest "didn't you say He was everywhere". The boy replied "Yes but I have no pocket".- Collector
