One Sunday afternoon, after the vicar has given a lengthy sermon on right and wrong, he says to the congregation, "And so, to conclude, doing good in the world will give you a place in heaven and doing bad may see you in hell. Stand up if you want to do good for others."
The entire congregation stand.
"Very good," beams the vicar, "now be seated if you wish a place in heaven."
Everybody sits except for a man at the back. The vicar recognises him as Paddy.
"Paddy, surely you wish to do good?"
"Yes Father," Paddy mumbles nervously.
"And you don't wish to go to hell?" continues the vicar.
"No Father," says Paddy.
"Then why didn't you sit down?"
"Well," says Paddy, "I felt bad that you were the only one standing."
