Funny Religious Christmas Jokes
For Christians, the birth of Jesus Christ has a deep spiritual significance, but that does not mean to say that worshipers cannot enjoy a good clean joke at Christmas.
Un-Holy Christmas Tale From the Inn At Bethlehem
Did you hear about the St Michael’s Primary School nativity play?
Two children are dressed as Mary and Joseph, and they are on their way to the inn at Bethlehem.
Meanwhile on the other side of the stage, a lad in a shepherd’s outfit is on a mobile phone. He is calling the inn to make a reservation.
Another Christmas Nativity Joke
Place: The Middle School nativity play.
Scene: The Inn at Bethlehem on Christmas Eve.
Joseph: Do you have any room at the inn?
Inn Keeper: (Over-playing his role) Yes, plenty, come on in.
Joseph: [Jaw drops, speechless]
In the nativity play, the inn keeper is supposed to say ‘There is no room in the inn’, and this is how the baby Jesus came to be born in a stable.
Father John and His Young Parishioner
It was the Sunday after Christmas at St Peter and Saint Paul’s Church in Borden, Kent, England. Father John was looking at the nativity scene prior to packing away the figures when he noticed the baby Jesus was missing from the scene.
Immediately, Father John turned towards the vicarage in order to call the police. But as he was about to do so, he saw little Harry with a red wagon, and in the wagon was the figure of the little infant, Jesus.
Father John walked up to Harry and said, ‘Well, Harry, where did you get the little infant?’
Harry replied honestly, ‘I took him from the church, Father John.’
‘And why did you take him?’
With a sheepish smile, Harry said, ‘Well, about a week before Christmas I prayed to little Lord Jesus. I told him if he would bring me a red wagon for Christmas, I would give him a ride around the block in it.’
This funny religious joke is an ideal yarn to spin at any Christmas party.

A Tree for Christmas
Admiring the Christmas trees displayed in his neighbour’s windows, Nathan asks his father, ‘Daddy, can we have a Hanukkah Tree?’
‘What? No, of course not.’ says his father.
‘Why not?’ asks Nathan again.

Remarkable Service
Young Eddie was spending Christmas with his grand parents. On Christmas morning the family went to church. While they were waiting to go in Eddie checked all the announcements, and pictures along the walls. When he came to a group of pictures of men in uniform, he asked a nearby verger, ‘Who are all those men in the pictures?’
The verger replied, ‘Why, those are our boys who died in the service’.
Dumbfounded, the Jonathan asked, ‘Was that the carol service or the Christmas Day service?’
