In some religions, you talk to the priest when you do something wrong. Depending upon what you did and how many times you did it, they may tell you to say specific prayers, or perhaps they may give you some type of punishment that will supposedly pay for what you did.<\/p>\n
This is a situation that many people find themselves in when they are part of that religion, but not all of them pay as close attention to it. In some cases, they may even find a way to win, even in a system that is designed to make them lose. That is why you will like the following joke.<\/p>\n
A teenage boy goes to church to confess his sins.<\/p>\n
\u201cForgive me, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl.\u201d<\/p>\n
The priest asks, \u201cIs that you, little Joey Pagano?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2018Yes, Father, it is.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd who was the girl you were with?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t tell you, Father. I don\u2019t want to ruin her reputation.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, Joey, I\u2019m sure to find out her name sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI cannot say.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWas it Teresa Mazzarelli?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll never tell.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWas it Nina Capelli?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, but I cannot name her.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWas it Cathy Piriano?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy lips are sealed.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWas it Rosa DiAngelo, then?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPlease, I cannot tell you.\u201d<\/p>\n
The priest sighs in frustration. \u201cYou\u2019re very tight-lipped, and I admire that. But you\u2019ve sinned and have to atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for four months. Now you go and behave yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n
Joey walks back to his pew, and his friend Franco slides over and whispers, \u201cWhat\u2019d you get?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFour months vacation and five good leads!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
