On a bus, a priest sat next to a drunk who was struggling to read a newspaper.
Suddenly, with a slurred voice, the drunk asked the priest:
“Do you know what arthritis is?”
The parish priest soon thought of taking the opportunity to lecture the drunk and replied:
“It’s a disease caused by sinful and unruly life: excess, consumption of alcohol, drugs, marijuana, crack, and certainly lost women, prostitutes, promiscuity, sex, binges and other things I dare not say.”
The drunk widened his eyes, shut up and continued reading the newspaper.
A little later the priest, thinking that he had been too hard on the drunk, tried to soften:
“How long have you had arthritis?”
“I don’t have arthritis! It says here in the paper that the Pope has it.”
