Pierce and Madelyn on the 7th Commandment

Me: Pierce, what is the 7th commandment?
Pierce: I don't know.
Madelyn: Do not commit adultery.
Me: What is adultery?
Madelyn: I don't know.
Me (keeping it PG): It means having more than one husband or wife.
Madelyn: Did it used to be okay? They did it in Bible times; remember Jacob?
Me: Well, we all do things that aren't okay. Just because we do them doesn't make it okay to God.
Pierce: Yeah, adultery is greedy.

Indeed, Son, indeed.

Plus, what man would want to deal with double the number of calls about whether the furnace was working right?
