    An elderly Frenchman who lived on the outskirts of Grostenquin, France in
    1963 went to the local church for confession. When the priest slid open the
    panel in the confessional, the man said: "Father... during World War II, a
    beautiful Jewish woman from our neighbourhood knocked urgently on my door
    and asked me to hide her from the Nazis. So I hid her in my attic."
    The priest replied, "That was a wonderful thing you did, and you have no
    need to confess that."
    "There is more to tell, Father... she started to repay me with sexual
    favours. This happened several times a week, and sometimes twice on
    Sundays."
    The priest said, "That was a long time ago and by doing what you did, you
    placed the two of you in great danger, but two people under those
    circumstances can easily succumb to the weakness of the flesh. However, if
    you are truly sorry for your actions, you are indeed forgiven."
    "Thank you, Father. That's a great load off my mind. I do have one more
    question."
    "And what is that?" asked the priest.
    "Should I tell her the war is over?"
