There are two guys walking in front of a large church. One guy says to the other:
- Just a minute, I'll be right back.
He goes into the confessional and says:
- Father forgive me, for I have sinned. I have had two extramarital affairs.
The Father says:
- You need to say 40 Hail Marys, and I also need to know if the women were members of my parish.
The confessor replies:
- Yes Father, they were.
The priest says then that in order to receive absolution he, the priest, needed the names of the two women.
The man said:
- Father, I don't kiss and tell, and besides, I must leave them to handle their own confessions.
The priest responded:
- Well, was one of them Mrs. O'Reilly?
The man replied:
- No Father, and I wouldn't say anyway. I've told you that!
The priest says:
- Well, was one of them Mrs. Brown?
Exasperated the man said:
- No Father, and I told you I'm not telling you the names of the women!!!
The priest said:
- Well then I'm going to expel you from the congregation for 6 months!
The man said:
- OK, fine. and left.
As he approached his friend at the bottom of the steps his friend said:
- So, how did it go?
The confessor said:
- Great! 6 months off, and two leads!
