So many of us tend to take life so seriously. We believe that if we are to become more spiritual, more religious, more devote, that our attitude as well as our approach towards life must also be much more serious. If we ever hope to learn more about God and the Mysteries of Life, then we must adopt an attitude that is more solemn and pious. What we really need to learn is to

Lighten up!

Anyone who has taken a good close look at the World around them. Anyone who has taken the time to observe the people in the World around him as well as the many unusual situations that  unfold each and every day, will eventually come to the conclusion that not only is God Omnipotent and Omnipresent, but that God also has a great sense of humor.

A good laugh, no matter what its source can wipe away the doom and gloom consciousness that pervades so many of our lives in this world today. The next time you laugh, experience the feeling that it gives and you will find it can be very joyful, cleansing, and invigorating.

Every week I will add another Joke to the list, and although the subject matter at times will be questionable, hopefully the results (a good laugh) will be a positive one.

This weeks Joke

" Three Couples and the Church "

Three couples, an elderly couple, a middle aged couple

and a young newlywed couple wanted to join a church.

The pastor says, "We have special requirements for new parishioners. You must abstain from having sex for two weeks."

The couples agreed and came back at the end of two weeks.

The pastor goes to the elderly couple and asks, "Were you

able to abstain from sex for the two weeks?"

The old man replies, "No problem at all, Pastor."

"Congratulations! Welcome to the church!" said the pastor.

The pastor goes to the middle aged couple and asks,

"Well, were you able to abstain from sex for the two weeks?"

The man replied, "The first week was not too bad. The

second week I had to sleep on the couch for a couple of nights but, yes we made it."

"Congratulations! Welcome to the church," said the pastor.

The pastor then goes to the newlywed couple and asks,

"Well, were you able to abstain from sex for two weeks?"

"Well Pastor, we were not able to go without sex for the

two weeks," the young man replied.

"What Happened?" inquired the pastor.

"My wife was reaching for a can of corn on the top shelf and dropped it.

When she bent over to pick it up, I was overcome with

lust and took advantage of her right there."

"You know, of course, this means you will not be welcome

in our church," stated the pastor.

"I understand," said the young man. "We're not welcome at the Supermarket anymore either."
