A few minutes before the
church services started, the congregation was sitting in their pews and
talking. Suddenly, satan appeared at the front of the church. Everyone started
screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling each other in a frantic
effort to get away from this evil incarnate. Soon the church was empty except
for one elderly gentleman who sat calmly in his pew without moving, seemingly
oblivious to the fact that god's ultimate enemy was in his presence. So satan
walked up to the man and said, "Do you know who I am?"
The man replied, "yep, sure
do." "Aren't you afraid of me?" satan asked.
"Nope, sure ain't. said the
man.
"Don't you realize I can kill
you with one word?" asked satan.
"Don't doubt it for a
minute," returned the old man, in an even tone.
"Did you know that I can
cause you profound, horrifying agony for all eternity?" persisted satan.
"Yep" was the calm reply.
"And your are still not
afraid?" asked satan.
"Nope," said the old man More
than a little perturbed, satan asked, "why aren't you afraid of me?"
The man calmly replied, "been
married to your sister for 48 years."
