Three couples, an elderly couple, one middle aged couple and one set of newly weds, were meeting with the pastor of a small somewhat eccentric church for the purpose of joining the congrecation.
Says the pastor " We have only one test to join our church, you must abstain from sex for two weeks, if you do this we will welcome you to our congrecation".
Two weeks later the couples show up at the church and the pastor ask the elderly couple if they had abstained from sex. " Yes pastor, no problem says the husband".
Welcome to our congrecation said the pastor."
The pastor next asks the middle age couple. "Well, it was difficult pastor, said the husband, but we did it. "
"Welcome to our congrecaton" said the pastor.
Finally the pastor gets to the newly weds and ask them the question.
"Well said the new husband, I'm sorry pastor but we didn't make it. We tried and almost made it but 3 days ago we were preparing for a dinner party and my beautiful wife dropped a can of peas on the floor and when she bent over to pick them up the sight of her was too much for me to resist and we ended up making love right there."
The pastor said " Thats alright, you did no wrong it's just that at this time we cannot welcome you to our congregation."
Here the newbride finally speaks up and says "That's alright pastor just at this time we're not welcome at the supermarket either.
