What causes arthritis?

WHAT CAUSES ARTHRITIS?

A drunk man who smelled like beer sat down on a subway next to a
priest. The man's tie was stained, his face was plastered with red
lipstick, and a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn
coat pocket.

He opened his newspaper and began reading. After a few minutes the
man turned to the priest and asked, 'Say Father, what causes
arthritis?'

The priest replies, 'My Son, it's caused by loose living, being
with cheap, wicked women, too much alcohol, contempt for your
fellow man, sleeping around with prostitutes and lack of a bath.'

The drunk muttered in response, 'Well, I'll be darned,'

Then returned to his paper.

The priest, thinking about what he had said, nudged the man and
apologized.. 'I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to come on so strong. How
long have you had arthritis?'

The drunk answered, 'I don't have it, Father. I was just reading here
that the Pope does.'

Actually it is an auto-immune disorder where the body's immune system turns on itself and creates painful, and ultimately debilitating, inflammation.

Just thought I'd show up and derail a joke.

Although with treatment, if caught early, there is a pretty good chance of being able to live with it with out becoming debilitating. My wife was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis 2 years ago, and the Dr seems to think she should be able to live a long normal life. (knock on wood)
