Three couples, an elderly couple, a middle aged couple, and a 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 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 , "Were you able to abstain from sex for the two weeks?" The man replied, "The first week wasn't too bad. The second week I hadto sleep on the couch for a couple of nights, but yes we made it."
Then the pastor went to the newlywed couple from and asked, "Well were you able to abstain from having sex for the 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 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 that this means you will not be welcome in our church," stated the pastor.
"I figured that" said the young man, "and we're not welcome at Safeway anymore either."
