Three couples decided to join an exclusive church. The first couple was married for 10 years, the second was married for five years, and the third were newlyweds.

The three couples came before the priest and asked to join the congregation. The priest said: "As you know this is a very exclusive church, and we can't let just anyone join. In order to become a member you must pass a test. To join you must forego sex for a month." The couples agreed to the terms and went their separate ways.

After a month, the couples returned to the church and stood before the priest. "How did you do on your trial?" he asked the couple married for 10 years.

"We did fine," they replied. "We've been together so long that not having sex was easy."

"Welcome to the congregation," the priest said. He then turns to the couple married for five years and asks them: "How did you do on your trial?"

"We did okay," they replied. "There were a couple of tough spots here and there, but we held out and refrained from sex."

"Welcome to the congregation," the priest said. He then turned to the newlyweds and asked "How did you do on your trial?"

The couple is sheepishly silent for a minute and then finally the husband speaks up. "Father, it was hard but we did really well. Right up to the last day. My wife was handling some tomatoes and dropped one. When she bent down to pick it. I couldn’t resist. I had to have her straight away. We had the most passionate love we ever had in our relationship, trying things we had never done before. It was amazing, but sorry father, we failed."

"That's disgusting!" The priest exclaimed. "Why would you do that? You have to leave and never come back!"

The wife finally spoke up and said: "That's exactly what they said to us at the supermarket."
