Subject: welcome to the church
|
||
|
|
||
|
Three married couples, aged 20,30,40 years old, want to join the Orthodox
|
||
|
Church of Sexual Repression. Near the end of the interview, the priest
|
||
|
informs them that before they can be accepted they will have to pass one
|
||
|
small test. They will have to abstain from all sex for a month. They all
|
||
|
agree to try.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A month later they are having their final interview with the cleric. He
|
||
|
asks the 40 year old couple how they did. "Well, it wasn't too hard. I
|
||
|
spent a lot of time in the workshop and she has a garden so we had plenty
|
||
|
of other things to do. We did OK." the husband said.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Very good, my children. You are welcome in the Church. And how well did
|
||
|
you manage?", he asked the 30 year old couple.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"It was pretty difficult", the husband answered. "We thought about it all
|
||
|
the time. We had to sleep in different beds and we prayed a lot. But we
|
||
|
were celibate for the entire month."
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Very good, my children. You are welcome in the Church. And how about
|
||
|
you?", he asked the 20 year old couple.
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Not too good, I'm afraid, Father. We did OK for the first week.", he said
|
||
|
sheepishly. "By the second week we were going crazy with lust. Then one
|
||
|
day during the third week my wife dropped a head of lettuce and when she
|
||
|
bent over to pick it up, I... I weakened and took her right there."
|
||
|
|
||
|
"I'm sorry my son, you are not welcome in the Church"
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Yeah, and we're not too welcome in the A&P anymore either"
