A married man went into the confessional and said to his priest,
“I almost had an affair with another woman.”
The priest said, “What do you mean, almost?”
The man replied, “Well, we got undressed and rubbed against each other, but I stopped before anything happened.”
The priest said, “Rubbing against her is the same as putting yourself in temptation. You’re guilty of sin and need to say five Hail Marys for forgiveness. And as penance, avoid the woman entirely.”
The man nodded, left the confessional, and started walking out.
On his way, the priest saw him heading toward the door and shouted, “Where are you going?”
The man replied, “To the bakery, Father.”
The priest asked, “Why the bakery?”
The man smirked and said, “I’m going to rub the donuts, but I’m not going to eat them.
