Different Views from Different Pews

A team of archaeologists was excavating in Israel when
they came upon a cave. Written on the wall of the cave
were the following symbols in order of appearance:

1. A dog 2. A donkey 3. A shovel 4. A fish 5. A Star of
David

They decided that this was a unique find and the
writings were at least more than three thousand years
old. They chopped out the piece of stone and had it
brought to the museum where archaeologists from all
over the world came to study the ancient symbols.

They held a huge meeting after months of conferences to
discuss what they could agree was the meaning of the
markings. The President of their Society stood up and
pointed at the first drawing and said, "This looks like
a dog. We can judge that this was a highly intelligent
race as they knew how to have animals for
companionship. To prove this statement you can see that
the next symbol resembles a donkey, so, they were even
smart enough to have animals help them till the soil.
The next drawing looks like a shovel of some sort,
which means they even had tools to help them. Even
further proof of their high intelligence is the fish
which means that they had a famine that hit the earth
whereby the food didn't grow, they would take to the
sea for food. The last symbol appears to be the Star of
David which means they were evidently Hebrews."

The audience applauded enthusiastically and the
President smiled and said, "I'm glad to see that you
are all in full agreement with our interpretations."

Suddenly, a little old Jewish man stood up in the back
of the room and said, "I object to every word. The
explanation of what the writings say is quite simple.
First of all, everyone knows that Hebrews don't read
from left to right, but from right to left. Now, look
again, It now says: HOLY MACKEREL, DIG THE @SS ON THAT
BITCH!"
