A beloved Pope died and went to heaven |
Many years ago, a beloved Pope died and went to heaven. Saint Peter
greeted him in a firm embrace. "Welcome your holiness, your dedication
and unselfishness in serving your fellow man during your life has earned
you great stature in heaven. You may pass through the gates without
delay and are granted free access to all parts of heaven."
St. Peter continued: "You are also granted an open-door policy and may,
at your own discretion, meet with any heavenly leader including the
Father, without prior appointment. Is there anything which your holiness
desires?"
"Well, yes," the Pope replied. "I have often pondered some of the
mysteries which have puzzled and confounded theologians through the
ages. Are there perhaps any transcripts which recorded the actual
conversations between God and the prophets of old? I would love to see
what was actually said, without the dimming of memories over time."St.
Peter immediately ushered the Pope to the heavenly library and explained
how to retrieve the various documents. The Pope was thrilled and settled
down to review the history of humanity's relationship with God.
Two years later, a scream of anguish pierced the quiet of the library.
Immediately several of the saints and angels came running.
They found the Pope pointing to a single word on a parchment, repeating
over and over: "There's an 'R'. There's an 'R.' There's an 'R'... It's
CELIBRATE, not celibate!"

That's an old one but still hilarious! :-)
