Learning English
Posted: 09 Jun 2009, 09:11
A Catholic priest was about to leave his Mission in the jungle where he has spent years teaching the natives. He suddenly realizes that the one thing he never taught them was how to speak English, so he takes the chief for a walk in the forest.
He points to a tree and says to the chief, "This is a tree."
The chief looks at the tree and grunts, "Tree."
The priest is pleased with the response. They walk a little farther and he points to a rock and says, "This is a rock."
Hearing this, the chief looks and grunts, "Rock."
The priest is really getting enthusiastic about his pupil's results when he hears a loud rustling in the bushes. As he peeks over the top, he sees a couple of natives in the midst of heavy sexual activity.
The priest is really flustered and quickly says, "Riding a bike."
The chief looks at the couple briefly, pulls out his blowgun and kills them.
The priest goes ballistic and yells at the chief that he has spent years teaching the tribe how to be civilized and kind to each other, so how could he kill these people in cold blood that way?
The chief calmly replies, "My bike."
