Murphy showed up at Church one Sunday, and the minister almost fell down when he saw him. He had never been to church in his life.

After the service, the minister caught up with him and said, "Murphy, I am so glad ya decided to come to our church service. What made ya come?"

Murphy said, "I got to be honest with you Reverend. A while back, I misplaced me hat and I really, really love that hat. I know that McGlynn had a hat just like mine, and I knew he came to church every Sunday. I also knew that he had to take off his hat during the service, and I figured he would leave it in the back of church.

So, I was going to leave before the blessing, and steal McGlynn's hat."

The minister said, "Well, Murphy, I notice that ya didn't steal McGlynn's hat. What changed your mind?"

Murphy replied, "Well, after I heard your sermon on the 10 Commandments, I decided that I didn't need to steal McGlynn's hat after all."

With a tear in his eye the minister gave Murphy a big smile and said; "After I talked about 'Thou Shalt Not Steal 'ya decided you would rather do without your hat than burn in Hell?"

Murphy slowly shook his head. "No, Reverend, after ya talked about 'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery', I remembered where I left me hat."
