There are 3 couples that want to convert to the Catholic religion. They
go and see a priest and he tells them that the first requirement is to 
abstain from sex for 30 days.

30 days later, the 3 couples come back to see the priest. He asks the
first couple if they passed the requirement. The man says "Well,
Father, after 10 days I couldn't stand it, and I made love to my wife."
The priest responds "Sorry, but I cannot let you into the Church".

He then asks the second couple how they did. The man says "Father, we didn't 
so much as TOUCH one another during the last 30 days." The priest responds
"Congratulations, you are now qualified to enter the Church."

He then asks the third couple how they did. The man says "Well, Father
everything was going just fine until the 27th day. My wife bent over the
freezer to get something out, and I just happened to notice that she
didn't have any panties on. I just couldn't stand if any more, so I 
walked over to her, dropped my drawers, and slipped it in there." The
priest replies "That's DISGUSTING!! I can never let you into the Church
after something like that."

The man says "That's OK father - they won't let us in the Safeway anymore
either."
