In the Attic

Category: Religion & War

As he nearing the end of his life, a Dutchman in Amsterdam felt that he needed to confess, so he went to his Priest.

"Forgive me Father, for I have sinned. During World War II, I hid a Jewish man in my attic."

"Well," answered the perplexed Priest, "That's not a sin."

"But I made him pay me 20 guilders for each week he stayed."

"I admit that wasn't good, but you did it for a good cause."

"Oh thank you Father; that eases my mind. Father, I have one more question."

"What is it, son?"

"Do I have to tell him the war is over?"
