Three couples, an elderly couple, a middle aged couple and a young
newlywed couple wanted to join a church.
The pastor said, "We have special requirements for new parishioners.
You must abstain from having sex for two weeks." The couples agreed
and came back at the end of two weeks.
The pastor went to the elderly couple and asked, "Were you able to
abstain from sex for the two weeks?" The old man replied, "No problem
at all, Pastor." "Congratulations! Welcome to the church!" said the
Pastor.
The Pastor went to the middle aged couple and asked, "Well, were you
able to abstain from sex for the two weeks?" The man replied, "The
first week was not too bad. The second week I had to sleep on the
couch for a couple of nights but, yes we made it." "Congratulations!
Welcome to the church!" said the Pastor.
The Pastor then went to the newlywed couple and asked, "Well, were
you able to abstain from sex for two weeks?" "No Pastor, we were not
able to go without sex for the two weeks," the young man replied
sadly. "What happened?" inquired the Pastor. "My wife was reaching
for a can of corn on the top shelf and dropped it. When she bent over
to pick it up, I was overcome with lust and took advantage of her
right there."
"You understand, of course, this means you will not be welcome in our
church," stated the Pastor. "We know." said the young man "We're not
welcome at Safeway anymore either."
