A priest and a rabbi were talking when the rabbi asked the priest about confession.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have an idea,\u201d said the priest.<\/p>\n
Why don\u2019t you sit with me on my side of the confession booth and hear it for yourself? No one will ever know.<\/p>\n
A woman came into the booth and said, \u201cBless me Father for I have sinned.\u201d<\/p>\n
The priest asked, \u201cWhat did you do?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI cheated on my husband.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow many times?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThree times.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWell,\u201d said the priest, \u201cSay 5 Hail Marys and put 5 dollars in the offering box.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another woman came and said, \u201cBless me Father for I have sinned.\u201d<\/p>\n
The priest asked, \u201cWhat did you do?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI cheated on my husband.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow many times?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThree times.\u201d<\/p>\n
Again the priest said, \u201cSay 5 Hail Marys and put 5 dollars in the offering box.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then the priest said to the rabbi, \u201cWould you like to do the next confession?\u201d<\/p>\n
The rabbi started to object, but the priest said, \u201cGo ahead. It\u2019s easy.\u201d<\/p>\n
So another woman came in and said, \u201cBless me Father for I have sinned.\u201d<\/p>\n
This time the rabbi asked, \u201cWhat did you do?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI cheated on my husband.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow many times?\u201d<\/p>\n
The woman said, \u201cTwice.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then the rabbi said, \u201cWell go do it again. They\u2019re 3 for 5 dollars today.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
