Once a lawyer went to a convent and became a monk. One day, he was praying in front of the big icon of the madonna and another monk came near him, and they both prayed in silence, on their knees. Then, the x-lawyer took out a packet of cigarettes, lit one and continued with his prayers. The other fellow was surprised, and asked "how can you do that.." and the smoker replied that the abbott had given him permission. Next day, the other fellow came and said he asked the abbott and the abbott had refused him.
the lawyer asked : " What did you ask the abbott??"
the monk said "I asked if I can smoke while I pray"
The lawyer replied "Too bad, you should have asked if you can pray while you smoke, not if you can smoke while you pray..."
