The Confessional

[teapeebubbles]

Did you hear the one about the two men who crashed in
their private plane onto a South Pacific island? They
both survived.

One of the men brushed himself off and then proceeded
to run all over the island in order to determine their
chances for survival.

After a thorough search of the island he rushed up to
the other man and declared, "This island is uninhabited,
there is no food, there is no water. We are going to
die!"

The other man comfortably leaned against the fuselage
of the wrecked plane, folded his arms and responded,
"I make $100,000 per week." And then was quiet.

The first man, realizing his friend must not understand
declared again with strong conviction, "Listen, we are
on an uninhabited island. There is no food, no water.
We are going to die!"

The other man, unruffled, again responded. "Listen, I
make $100,000 per week."

Mystified, the first man, taken aback, but unwilling to
be satisfied with such an answer again repeated, "I'm
telling you we ARE going to die. There is no one else
on this island. There is No food. There is NO water. We
are, I repeat, we ARE going to die."

Still unfazed, the first man looked the other in the
eyes and said, "Don't make me say this again. I make
$100,000 per week. I pay a 10% tithe. My pastor WILL
find us!"
