A reverend came to heaven and said to St. Peter, "I have preached every Sunday and helped many people in my community, may I come into heaven?" <\/p>\n
St. Peter said, "Sure, please sit on this bench here and wait until your name will be called." <\/p>\n
Then a young man in blue jeans arrived and was allowed straight into heaven. <\/p>\n
The reverend went to St. Peter and asked, "Who is that?" St. Peter said, "He was a bus driver." The reverend complained, "How come he is allowed straight into heaven and I have to wait?" <\/p>\n
St. Peter explained, "You know, here we go by results, not by good intentions. When you preached, only a third of the people in your church really prayed. One third were bored and thinking of something else, and one third were dozing off. But I can tell you, when this man drove a bus, everybody on the bus constantly prayed."<\/p>\n
