Comment from PearlW
Oh gosh, this made me giggle. I do not know how priests, after hearing years upon years of confessions (and probably a lot of depravity) don't go stark-raving mad.
"I've been to confession and I must admit that you've made the confessional box much more inviting." Suddenly the priest yelled, "get out of there now, you're on my side." -- You need a new paragraph after "inviting."
In dialogue, every speaker gets their own paragraph.
Good job with this, and good luck in the contest.

Thank you very much Pearl for your great review and suggestion about starting a new paragraph. I took your advice and made the change. Would you possibly consider upgrading the rating since I have made the correction. Thank you very much for your help my friend.

Oh absolutely :) Done.

Thank you very much Pearl for your help. I really appreciate your assistance. Your name "Pearl" was my mothers name "Katie Pearl." God rest her soul. Thanks again my friend.

You sure left the best for last. A classic skill a lot of writers forget or fail to learn. I didn't know what to make of the interesting confessional decorations and was as confused as the narrator. What a voltage charged ending. Ha!Ha!

I paused for a moment at the end...and then the penny dropped. Hahaha!
So much for perfect preaching priests...if there is such a thing. :-)
Thanks for the LOL.
Cheers, Ted

Comment from Spiritual Echo
That's very funny and you pull it off with great style.
good luck, the writing is very good, though I'd suggest there's more than one paragraph break in this 100 word story that you posted in a single block.
