A man wonders if having sex on the Sabbath 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 the Sabbath! 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, how 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."
