Does it get easier?

A young priest, fresh out of the seminary, just moved into the rectory for his first church assignment. He was partnered up with a much older, wiser priest. One evening, while watching television, a beautiful woman appeared on the screen. The younger priest became very uncomfortable and asked the older priest “Does it get easier?” “Does what get easier?” “Ignoring sexual temptation. Impure thoughts and the like” “Oh, that, sure it does get easier over time. I haven’t struggled with that in decades” Just then the doorbell rang, and the young priest answered the door. A Cub Scout was stopping by to sell magazine subscriptions” As the old man stood to greet the boy , a look of horror came across his face. He looked at the younger priest and said, firmly, “I take it back, it does not get easier!”
