People were in their pews talking at church.

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 evil

incarnate. Soon everyone had exited the church

except for one elderly

gentleman who sat calmly in his pew without

moving,

seeming oblivious to the

fact that God's ultimate enemy was in his

presence.

So Satan walked up to

the old man and said, "Don't 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 with a word?" asked

Satan.

"Don't doubt it for a minute," returned the old
man,

in an even tone.

"Did you know that I could cause you profound

horrifying, AGONY for all

eternity?" persisted Satan.

"Yep," was the calm reply.

"And you're still not afraid?" asked Satan.

"Nope," said the old man.

More than a little perturbed, Satan asked, "Well,

why aren't you afraid of

me?"


The man calmly replied, "Been married to your
sister

for 44 years."
