A rabbi a priest and an imam argue whose God is bigger

A rabbi a priest and an imam argue whose God is bigger.The imam says “mine is the biggest God and I’ll give you an example; I was on a ship sailing across the Atlantic ocean when a storm started. The waves were as high as buildings, the wind so strong it almost turned the ship over. The captain said all is lost and we will surely drown. I closed my eyes and prayed to Allah and lo and behold – a circle of calm water, as flat as a mirror, surrounded the ship and we cruised peacefully in the midst of the storm until we reached safety”.The priest said “that’s nothing. I was once on an airplane flying across the Atlantic ocean when a storm started. There were lightnings striking around us with force, the wind so strong it almost tore the airplane apart. The captain said all is lost and we will surely crash. I closed my eyes and prayed to Jesus and lo and behold – a circle of calm air, as quiet as outer space, surrounded the airplane and we flu peacefully in the midst of the storm until we reached safety”.”That’s nothing” said the rabbi. “I was leaving the synagog once after the Friday prayer, all full of holiness and greatness from the Sabbath that has just arrived, when I spotted a wallet full of money on the sidewalk in front of me. Being as Jews are not allowed to touch money on a Sabbath, I closed my eyes and prayed to God and lo and behold – a circle of Thursday surrounded me and I pocketed the wallet”.
