Three couples, an elderly couple, a middle-aged couple & a young newly-wed couple wanted to join a church.
The priest said " We have special requirements for new parishioners, you must abstain from having sex for
two weeks." The couples agreed & came back at the end of two weeks.
The priest went to the elderly couple and asked, "Were you able to abstain from sex for two weeks?"
The old man replied, "No problem at all priest."
"Congratulations, welcome to the church!" said the priest.
The priest went to the middle-aged couple and asked, "Were you able to abstain from sex for two weeks?"
The middle-aged man replied, "The first week was not too bad, on the second week I had to sleep on the
sofa but, yes we made it."
"Congratulations, welcome to the church!" said the priest.
The priest went to the young newly-wed couple and asked, "Were you able to abstain from sex for two weeks?"
"No sir, we were not able to go without sex for the two weeks." the young man replied sadly.
"What happened?" enquired the priest.
" Well, my wife was reaching for a tin of corn on the top shelf and dropped it." said the young man.
" 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 that you will not be welcome in our church?" stated the priest.
"We know," said the young man. "We're not welcome at the supermarket anymore either."
