Three couples are trying to join

Three couples are trying to join a very conservative church
After going through all of the night classes, Bible lectures, and vows, the minister says

they have one final test: they must abstain from relations for one week. All of them agree and go on their way.

When they return, the minister asks them how they did.

The first couple is in their 70’s. They said “No problem, we haven’t done that in a while, so we’re okay.” “Very good,” the minister said, “welcome to the church.”

The second couple is in their 40’s. The husband spoke,

“Well, it was tough, and a couple of nights I had to sleep on the couch, but we made it.” “Very good,” the minister said, “welcome to the church.”

The last couple is in their 20’s. The wife spoke, “Well, we were doing pretty good. I had to send my husband to sleep over at his buddies house on Tuesday and Wednesday,

and Thursday and Friday I had to sleep at my mother’s house. But on Saturday, well…I was up on a step ladder, and…”

“And what?” the minister demanded.

The husband spoke, “Well, she was wearing a kinda short skirt, and she was up on a stepladder, and I saw her undies, and I gave her playful slap on her behind,

and that was it…we couldn’t help ourselves any more, we made love right there on the floor.”

“Well!” the minister huffed “you have proven unable to control your base instincts! You are not welcome in this church!”

“That’s okay, I guess,” he said, “We’re not welcome in the hardware store any more either.”
