World War II Confession
An elderly
Italian man asked the local priest to hear his confession.
“Father, during World War
II a beautiful woman knocked on my door and asked me to hide her from the Enemy. I hid her
in my attic.”
The priest replied,
“That was
a wonderful thing you did, my son, and you have no need to confess.”
“It's worse, Father. she started to repay me with sexual favours.”
“You were
both in great danger, two people together under those circumstances act that
way. You are forgiven.”
“Thank
you, Father. That's a great load off my mind. But I have one more question.”
“And what
is that?”
“Should I
tell her the war is over?”
