There was a 28 year old son living still at home in this Jewish family – he was very attached to his mother and vice versa. The father was fed up.

The mother went to the Rabbi and asked: What she should do? What will become of my son?

The Rabbi said: Leave out three things on the table tonight and when he comes home, see what he takes. Leave a Ten dollar bill, a Bible and a bottle of Scotch.

She did so and the next day she called the Rabbi and said: He took all three. Whatever will become of him?

To which the Rabbi replied: Oh my! Hell become a Catholic priest!
