Catholic Church Puts Confession Booths In Strip Joints!

August 7, 2006

By Mark Miller

BOSTON, Mass. -- One of the last places a man can enjoy a safe, guilt-free and uninhibited evening of sexy entertainment is the strip joint. That refuge, however, may be coming to an end as the Catholic Church has begun installing confession booths inside gentlemen's clubs.

"When they first told me they were going to put a confession booth in here, I assumed they were joking," recalled Joe Sharkey, owner of Boston's Hot Foxx strip club. "It turns out the joke was on me.

"They said if I didn't allow the confession booth to be installed, they'd organize a citywide boycott and would work to get my liquor license suspended.

"I decided it was less trouble to just let them put the darn thing in."

Similar scenes have occurred throughout the city. Manned by local priests, the booths cater to both the male customers and the female strippers.

"At first, the customers mainly complained about it," Sharkey said.

"But as soon as the church 'suggested' we offer a 25 percent discount for anybody who used the confession booth, it became very popular."

"Truth be told, it saves me time visiting the confession booth in church," admitted Bob P., "so I'm killing two birds with one stone."

Over the next few weeks many of the strippers also began popping into the confessionals.

"I feel guilty enough not telling my parents about the kind of work I do," confided Misty.

"At least this way I can relieve some of that guilt that I have and also be absolved of my sins."

One club has adopted an "if you can't beat 'em" policy by incorporating the new confession booth into its name: The Lap Up Salvation Club.

Their motto is 'Come For the Nudity -- Stay for the Soul Cleansing.'

Totally random, but our school uses church pews for benches in the hallways...

Keep in mind we're a public school :confused:

Thank GOD we have you to keep us informed. Don't know if this site would survive without your wisdom but thanks again for leading us down the path of knowledge.

I received this in my inbox and thought some would find it interesting. The fact that you didn't doesn't mean the world stops.

Whether or not it's interesting isn't the point. The point is that it's a phony news story. If you meant it as a joke, put it in the joke thread.

If you're going to post news articles, post a link to your source.

Who said it's a phony news story, Fox News? He posted the link so why is it a phony, because he doesn't like the source? Next someone will need a list of what is a acceptable source and what's not.

It's a phony news story because the only "source" reporting it is that tabloid rag. I googled it and came up with nothing. And FOX NEWS RULES is right, there's is no strip club in Boston with that name. I found this out in a two minute google search.

If you're going to post a news article, post the link to the source. Or don't. But don't expect that someone won't notice.

Rather then say "it's the only source reporting it", it might be better to say "it's the only source you found" As far as tabloid rag, you are entitled to your opinion but yours is not the only opinion as I'm sure there are those that differ with you. Again there is more beliefs then just what Janice and Fox News feels. I'm not familiar with the tabloid and I'm suprised that you have such intimate knowledge of the workings of the paper.

Click on the link of the source that FOX NEWS RULES provided. On the left hand column, there are various subjects. Read a few of those stories, and when you've finish laughing your ass off, get back to me. That publication is a joke.

My point to you is, to avoid posting nonsense, include your source. That way people can decide if it's a credible source, or not...as is the case with Weekly World News.

Harvey I think you really need to lay off Janice. I've been gone a month and hoped you would have stopped this childish nonsense. Would you please either get off everyone's back here or go back to TP? It's unecessary.

[Mr. Cranky]

Not only do we get treated to Harvey's endless hilariously funny jokes and lists. Now we get phony unsourced news stories. It just doesn't get any better than this.

Don't be so hard on yourself. You're not that much of a blowhard.

Real or not, it's hilarious! I get a chuckle reading the rag-mag headlines in the check out line (I don't pick em up; just read the headlines on the cover!), about things like Elvis sightings, the 90-some year old woman having a baby, the infamous bat boy, etc... who comes up with all this?? :lol: :lol:

I work at a grocery store and whenever someone buys a World Weeky News they always give me an excuse about why they're buying it. "I going on a trip and need something to read on the plane," or "It's not mine, I'm buying it for my mother" :lol:

[MsOrange]

isn't World Weekly News the one who runs a lot of reports on "bat boy" or whatever. I use to be a cashier, and I read 'em every week, they were hilarious.

I would never use them as a credible news source though :lol:

[gilligan fanatic]

Harvey is trying, I think we jump on him way to much. He has new topics and questions, new ideas and trys to do the right thing. Thanks for trying Harvey :)

That one hurt!!:lol: :lol:
