Labels-identities (1)
There was a man who went to the priest and said,
"Father, I want you to say a Mass for my dog."
The priest was indignant.
"What do you mean, say a Mass for your dog?"
"It's my pet dog," said the man.
"I loved that dog and I'd like you to offer a Mass for him."
The priest said, "We don't offer Masses for dogs here.
You might try the denomination down the street.
Ask them if they might have a service for you."
As the man was leaving, he said to the priest,
"Too bad. I really loved that dog.
I was planning to offer a million-dollar stipend for the Mass."
And the priest said,
"Wait a minute, you never told me your dog was Catholic."
