Three couples, an elderly couple, a middle-aged couple
and a young newly-wed 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 newly-wed 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 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 'Do it All' any more either."
