NOT WELCOME
Apr. 24th, 2001 07:47 pma 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 couple agreed
and came back
at the end of two weeks.
The pastor 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 paint
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 Home Depot anymore, either."
