A jew, a Hindu and an Muslim were traveling together, and as the night
fell they came to a little country inn. The innkeeper explained
apologetically that only two beds were available in the inn, but he
would be glad to make up a comfortable cot for the third man in the
barn. So the three travelers drew straws, and it fell upon the Muslim
to sleep in the barn.
In a few minutes there was a knock at the door, to which the innkeeper
responded.
"I'm so sorry," explained the Muslim, "but there is a big pig in the
barn, and my religion forbids me to sleep under the same roof as a
pig!"
The Hindu had taken the next straw, and out he went. In a few minutes
there was another knock at the door, and the innkeeper opened the door
on the Indian fellow. Apologizing gracefully, he explained that his
religious belief forbade him to share shelter with a cow, and there
was in the barn.
Finally, out went the jew. In a few minutes there was yet another
knock at the door, which the innkeeper answered. On the doorstep stood
the pig and cow!
