We all know a few jokes about St. Peter standing at those Pearly Gates. (That's not biblical of course, but hush and enjoy the joke anyway.) I bet I know some you've never heard and you know some I don't know, so let's hear them.
There was this bus full of ministers on their way home from a convention and it took a dive off a cliff. All those ministers and their wives suddenly found themselves in Heaven, lined up to check in.
St. Peter checked the record books for the first minister and said, "Whoops! Sorry reverend, I can't let you in. It says here you have a secret sin, gossip. You never gossiped yourself but you love to hear it, and you heard it a lot as a pastor with all the complaining people do. In fact the records show you wouldn't get married until you met a woman named Gabby."
As the first minister headed for the elevator going down, St. Peter checked the records on the second and said, "I can't believe it, two in a row! Sorry pastor but the records show you have a secret sin too, the love of money. You never had a lot of it but in your heart you really lusted for it. In fact you wouldn't get married until you met a woman named Penney."
The third pastor looked at his wife and said, "Come on Fanny, we might as well leave."
