Riddle on how to dispose of donations.

A Catholic Priest, a Lutheran reverend and the ineffable Jewish Rabbi were having a heated discussion about how each of them divides the donated money between God and themselves.

" I draw a circle on the floor and throw coins in the air" says the Priest. " Money which falls inside the circle is for me, and which falls outside the circle is God's.

" I have a similar method" the reverend replied. " I draw a straight line on the floor and throw the coins in the air, all that falls left of the line is mine; what falls to the right of the line is God's.

Then the Jewish Rabbi introduced his method. " I also throw coins in the air. Everything that God can't catch and falls on the floor is mine."

An Englishman, a Scotsman and a Jewsih man go to the burial of their old friend Ivan.

The Englishman stands over the grave and says: 'I owed Ivan $20' and threw the money in the grave.

The Scotsman stands over the grave and says: 'I owed Ivan $50' and threw the money in the grave.

The Jewish man stands over the grave and says: 'I owed Ivan $100' and threw a cheque in the grave.

Svetlana, you nearly got it right;

The Jewish man says 'I owed Ivan $30. He writes a cheque for $100 and throws it in the grave, then takes out the $70 as change'
