A young newlywed couple wanted to join a church. The

pastor told them,

“We have special requirements for new parishioners.

You must abstain from sex for one whole month."

The couple agreed and after two-and-a-half weeks

Returned to the Church.

When the Pastor ushers them into his office, the

wife is crying and the husband obviously very depressed.

“You are back so soon... Is there a problem?" the

pastor inquired.

“We are terribly ashamed to admit that we did not

manage to abstain from sex for the required month...." the young man

replied sadly.

The pastor asked him what happened.

“Well, the first week was difficult.... However, we

managed to abstain through sheer will power. The second week was

terrible, but with the use of prayer, we managed to abstain. However, the

third week was unbearable.

We tried cold showers, prayer, reading from the

Bible.... anything to keep our minds off carnal thoughts."

“Then one afternoon, my wife reached for a can of

paint and dropped it.



When she bent over to pick it up, I was overcome

with lust and had my wicked way with her right then and there." admitted

the man, shamefacedly.

You understand this means you will not be welcome

in our church,” stated the pastor.

We know." said the young man, hanging his head...

"We're not welcome at Homebase either."

In my version she was bending over the freezer and they got kicked out of Iceland
