Chapter 495
This is compliments of Jim7
A priest dies and is waiting in line at the Pearly Gates.
A guy who’s dressed in sunglasses, a loud shirt, leather jacket, and jeans is ahead of him.
Saint Peter addresses this cool guy, “Who are you, so that I may know whether or not to admit you to the Kingdom of Heaven?”
The guy replies, “I’m Bruce, retired airline pilot from Toronto.”
Saint Peter consults his list, smiles and says to the pilot, “Take this silken robe and golden staff, and enter the Kingdom.”
The pilot goes into Heaven with his robe and staff.
Next, it’s the priest’s turn. He stands erect and booms out, “I’m Father Bob, pastor of Saint Mary’s for the last 43 years.”
Saint Peter consults his list, and says to the priest, “Take this cotton robe and wooden staff and enter the Kingdom.”
“Just a minute,” says the good father. “That man was a pilot and he gets a silken robe and golden staff, and I only get cotton and wood. How can this be?”
Saint Peter says, “We go by results up here, people slept when you preached - people prayed when he flew.”
A classic.
