A priest and a taxi driver both passed away on the same day and found themselves at the gates of Heaven, where St. Peter was waiting for them.
“Please follow me,” St. Peter said to the taxi driver, waving his hand.
The taxi driver followed obediently, and soon St. Peter led him to a massive mansion. It had everything one could imagine: an indoor theater, a heated pool, and even a personal golf course!
“Wow, thank you!” said the taxi driver, astonished and pleased with his good fortune in the afterlife.
Then, St. Peter turned to the priest, who seemed anxious and excited to see where he’d land. St. Peter led him to a small, run-down cabin. Inside was a creaky bunk bed and an old black-and-white TV with spotty reception.
“Excuse me, but isn’t there a mistake?” asked the shocked priest. “I was a PRIEST. I devoted my life to serving the church and spreading God’s word.”
St. Peter nodded thoughtfully. “True, but during your sermons, people fell asleep. When the taxi driver drove, everyone prayed!”
A priest arrives at the Pearly Gates and waits in line.
A priest arrives at the Pearly Gates and waits in line.
Ahead of him is a guy dressed in sunglasses, a flashy shirt, a leather jacket, and jeans.
Saint Peter greets the cool guy, “Who are you, so I can decide if you should enter Heaven?”
The guy replies, “I’m Jack, a retired airline pilot from Houston.” Saint Peter checks his list and smiles. “Take this silken robe and golden staff, and enter the Kingdom.”
Jack walks into Heaven with his robe and staff. Now it’s the priest’s turn. Standing tall, he declares, “I am Father Bob, pastor of Saint Mary’s for the last 43 years.”
Saint Peter consults his list and says, “Take this cotton robe and wooden staff and enter the Kingdom.”
The priest, a bit miffed, asks, “Just a moment. That man was a pilot and got a silken robe and golden staff. I only get cotton and wood. How is that fair?”
Saint Peter replies, “Here, we judge by results. When you preached, people slept. When he flew, people prayed.”
LOL!!
Hope this joke will make you smile! Have a nice day!!
