A direct line to god
Father O’Riely and father O’Brien
Father O’Brien.
Yes father O’Riely.
One of the parishioners said to me the other day that he’s been studying the bible for thirty years, but he still can’t make his wishes come true.
O really what denomination is he father O’Riely!?
I think he’s protestant father O’Brien, he was just visiting our church to see what we got up too!
That’ll be right; the Protestants never did have a direct line to God.
Tell him “it’s not what you know, it’s who you know.”
