One Sunday morning, everyone in one bright, beautiful, tiny town got up early and went to the local church.

Before the services started, the townspeople were sitting in their pews and talking about their lives, their families, etc. Suddenly, Satan appeared at the front of the church. Everyone started screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling¹ each other in a frantic² effort to get away from evil incarnate³.

Soon everyone was evacuated⁴ from the church, except for one elderly gentleman who sat calmly in his pew, not moving... seemingly oblivious⁵ to the fact that God's ultimate enemy was in his presence. Now this confused Satan a bit, so he walked up to the man and said, "Don't you know who I am?"

The man replied, "Yep, sure do."

Satan asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Nope, sure ain't," said the man.

Satan was a little perturbed⁶ at this and queried⁷, "Why aren't you afraid of me?"

The man calmly replied, "Been married to your sister for over 48 years
