Vocations...

A devout couple with a three year old boy wanted to begin helping the child discern his vocation. They called their parish priest.

"No problem," the priest said. I will put three objects on the table. Whichever he picks up will tell us his path.

The priest laid a Bible on the table. "If he picks this, he will be a priest or religious."
...then a wallet. "This means he will be a businessman."
...and finally a hip flask. "If he picks this, he will be a drunk."

The couple called their son in, who hobbled over to the coffee table, looked at the items for a moment, and snatched up all three.

"Dear Lord," screamed the priest. "He is going to be a Jesuit!!"
