A rabbi, a priest, and and an Imam walk into a bar...

A Jew, a Christian and an Arab walk into a bar...

sounds like the start of a good joke..

not too often do the three go together, on any specific issue, besides for fighting over control of Jerusalem..

but it happened.

Kikar reports about a sick Christian Arab who contacted Chief Rabbi Dovid Lau, asking for his assistance in arranging a meeting with the pope when he comes to visit Israel. Rabbi Lau invited the young man to join him at the official reception ceremony. Rabbi Lau said the purpose of the Pope's visit to to strengthen the ties between religions, and there is no better way of showing this than by helping this child in his request.

So, it is no joke, but it is  nice gesture..
