Confessional
A married man goes to confessional and tells the priest, "I almost
had an affair with a woman."
The priest asks, "What do you mean, almost?"
"Well, we got undressed and rubbed together, but then I stopped."
The priest replies, "Rubbing together is the same as putting it
in. You're not to go near that woman again. Now, say five Hail Mary's
and put $50 in the poor box."
The man leaves confessional, says his prayers, and then walks over
to the poor box. He pauses for a moment and then starts to leave.
The priest quickly runs over to him and says, "I saw that. You didn't
put any money in the poor box!"
"Well, Father, I rubbed up against it and you said it was the same
as putting it in." |
