The Kinds of People in Heaven
A very good man died, and as a reward for a life well spent, went to heaven. When he arrived, St. Peter met him at the gate. "Welcome," said St. Peter, "since you were such a good person in life, you may enter heaven."
"Thank you," said the man. "But before I come in, could you tell me what kind of other people are here?"
"Well, all kinds," replied St. Peter.
"Are there any convicted criminals in heaven?" asked the man.
"Yes, some," said St. Peter.
"Are there any communists in heaven?" asked the man.
"Yes, there are," replied St. Peter.
"Are there any Nazis in heaven?" asked the man.
"Just a few," said St. Peter.
"Well, are there any lawyers in heaven?" asked the man.
St. Peter replied, "What, and ruin it for everyone else?"
