A man wonders if having sex on Sunday is a sin because he is not sure if
sex is work or play.
So he goes to a priest and asks for his opinion on this question. After
consulting the Bible, the priest says,
"My son, after an exhaustive search, I am positive that sex is
work and is therefore not permitted on Sundays"
The man thinks: "What does a priest know about sex?"
So he goes to a minister who, after all, is a married man and
experienced in this matter. He queries the minister and receives the
same reply. Sex is work and therefore not for Sunday.
Not pleased with the reply, he seeks out a Rabbi, a man of thousands of
years tradition and knowledge. The Rabbi ponders the question, then
states,
"My son, sex is definitely play."
The man replies, "Rabbi, can you be so sure when so many others tell me
sex is work?"
The Rabbi softly speaks,
"My son, if sex were work, my wife would have the maid do it.
