			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sol Murphy showed up at Mass one Sunday&nbsp;and the priest almost fell down when he saw him. He&#8217;d never been to church in his life.<br />&nbsp;<br />After Mass the priest caught up with him &amp; said, &#8220;Murphy, I am so glad ya decided to come to Mass. What made ya come?&#8221;<br />&nbsp;<br />Murphy said, &#8220;I got to be honest with you Father a while back I misplaced me hat &amp; I really really love that hat. I know that McGlynn had a hat just like mine&nbsp;and I knew he came to church every Sunday . I also knew that he had to take off his hat during Mass&nbsp;and figured he would leave it in the back of church. SoI was going to leave after Communion &amp; steal McGlynn&#8217;s hat.&#8221;<br />&nbsp;<br />The priest said, &#8220;Well Murphy I notice that ya didn&#8217;t steal McGlynn&#8217;s hat. What changed your mind?&#8221;<br />&nbsp;<br />Murphy replied, &#8220;Well after I heard your sermon on the 10 Commandments I decided that I didn&#8217;t need to steal McGlynn&#8217;s hat after all.&#8221;<br />&nbsp;<br />With a tear in his eye the priest gave Murphy a big smile&nbsp;and said, &#8220;After I talked about &#8216;Thou Shalt Not Steal&#8217; ya decided you would rather do without your hat than burn in hell eh ?&#8221;<br />&nbsp;<br />Murphy slowly shook his head. &#8220;No Father after ya talked about &#8216;Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery &#8216; I remembered where I left me hat .&rdquo;</P><br />
