After a man had spent days looking for his new hat without
finding it, he decided he'd go to church on Sunday, sit at the back and during
the service, would sneak out and grab a hat from the rack at the front door. On
Sunday, he went to church and sat at the back. The sermon was about the 10
commandments. He sat through the whole sermon and instead of sneaking out he
waited until the sermon was over and went to talk to the priest.
He told the priest, "Father, I came here today to steal
a hat to replace the one I lost. But after hearing your sermon on the 10
Commandments, I changed my mind." The priest said, "Bless you my son.
Was it when I started to preach 'Thou shall not steal,' that changed your
heart?" The man responded, "No, it was the one on adultery. When you
started to preach on that, I remembered where I left my hat."
