Pearly Gates

A Taxi driver reaches the Pearly Gates and announces his presence to St.
Peter, who looks him up in his Big Book. Upon reading the entry for the
cabbie, St. Peter invites him to pick up a silk robe and a golden staff
and to proceed into Heaven.

A preacher is next in line behind the cabbie and has been watching these
proceedings with interest. He announces himself to St. Peter. Upon
scanning the preacher's entry in the Big Book, St. Peter furrows his brow
and says,
"Okay, we'll let you in, but take that cloth robe and wooden staff."

The preacher is astonished and replies, "But I am a man of the cloth. You
gave that cab driver a gold staff and a silk robe. Surely I rate higher
than a cabbie."

St. Peter responded matter-of-factly: "This is heaven and up here, we are
interested in results. When you preached, people slept. When the cabbie
drove his taxi, people prayed."
