Moses goes to conference with God.
As soon as he returns, he's anxiously met by tribes of Israel.
Silently, Moses climbs up some large rock, looks around the crowd, building up pressure and, after long theatrical pause, says:
As you all know, I spoke with our Father in heaven.
I have good news and bad news.
Which one do you want first?
Give us good news, shouts someone
Good news is, I managed to negotiate commandments down to just ten.
Crowd explodes in cheering!
Reminds me of perhaps the most profound cinema experience of my life, but the actor who played the older priest died hardly a month ago! That's sad and someone dying is not funny, so ultimately this picture is not funny either. Just saying...

This is not funny on many levels, but reminds me of when I used to be given just one wafer and never any wine like the priest always got...
Many levels eh? Well back to the drawing board for me then....
One of the drawbacks of creating your own jokes as opposed to posting a meme or joke already created and found to be funny I suppose.
How about a Priest Eucharist wine and wafer cook off elimination reality show? I mean if Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart can do a show together it's no holds barred IMO.
Judges: "Father Shaemus, what have you prepared for us?"
Father Shaemus: "Well I have me wine ouy prepaared meself, stomped the graepes and all. It hints of a Spanish wine from the Rioja region, it has a red.. err... long nose, smooth on the finish with a slight back note of peat. I call it "Sangre De Christo". Me wafer ouy used a barley flour with a half cup of whiskey in the batter and used me blowtorch to lightly scorch the top for presentaetion!"
Judges: "Um... Father... these wafers are burnt black!"
Father Shaemus: Aye, I donna thin the alcohol in the whiskey was complaetly ouyvaeporated when ouy set me torch!"
As the comic strip "Dilbert" a long time ago said: "If you have to explain it, it's not funny."
It certainly isn't funny until the person gets it. And those who take something seriously and don't like to see it mocked, won't appreciate the humor. There's the old story (not really a joke) about some airline passenger complaining about not wanting to sit next to another passenger (reading the Bible, or 'The God -delusion', take your pick) and so the stewardess puts the other other fellow in 1st class and roundly berates the complainer as a bigot to general applause.
The story is appreciated - or not - depending on how it is told.
