A cab 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 cabby, St. Peter invites him
to grab a silk robe and a golden staff and to proceed into
Heaven.
A preacher is next in line behind the cabby 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 cabby."
St. Peter responded matter-of-factly: "Here we are
interested in results. When you preached, people slept.
When the cabby drove his taxi, people prayed."
