    “Two local illeprates (Jordan and another) were in the Church...”

    Share Share Post
    Two local illiterates (Jordan & another) were in the Church, at Mass. Jordan noticed that his companion had a child's pictorial prayer book.
    Jordan: Why had you the prayer book - sure you cannot read?
    ?: How do you know?
    Jordan: I never saw a priest saying Mass while standing on his head.
