An elderly Italian guy went to his parish priest and asked if the priest
would hear his confession.
"Of course," said the priest.
"Well, father, at the beginning of World War II, a beautiful woman knocked
on my door and asked if I'd hide her from the Germans. I hid her in my
attic, and they never found her."
The priest said, "That's a wonderful thing you did, and nothing that you
need to confess."
The ol' guy said, "It gets worse, father ... I was weak ... and I told her
she had to pay me with her sexual favors."
The priest said, "Well, it was a difficult time, and you took a large risk
to hide her. I know that God in his wisdom and mercy will balance good and
evil, and judge you kindly."
"Thank you, father," said the old man. "That's a load off my mind. Can I
ask one more question?"
"Of course," said the priest.
"Well," asked the ol' man, "Do I need to tell her that the war is over?"
