A man had a terrible hate for lawyers like, he really hated any and all lawyers he met.
And as such, every time he was out driving his car, he would go out of his way to hit them. It didn't matter when or where, if he saw a lawyer he just had to run them over.
The man, however, was also a pious man. One day while driving, he saw the local priest out walking. The man stopped his car next to the priest, and offered him a ride to the church where he was going.
The priest gracefully accepted, and off they went.
It didn't take long before the man spotted a lawyer walking down the road, and immediately set out to hit him. Just before running the lawyer over, he did however remember his passenger, the priest, being with him.
He swerved back quickly, as not to reach the lawyer, but still heard a solid *THUNK*, despite being sure he had avoided the lawyer completely.
The man, now filled with shame of his sin, turned to the priest and said.., "Father, I must confess, I hit that lawyer in pure hate. Can you forgive me?"
The priest, looked at him, and answered.., "It's okay my son, I got him with the door."
