another quote

I've only been cleaning and reading for the past few days, so I've been avoiding the blogging. Here's another interesting thought I found in another book I read:

A man arrives at the gates of heaven. St. Peter asks, "Religion?"

The man says, "Methodist." St. Peter looks down his list, and says, "Go to room twenty-eight, but be very quiet as you pass room eight."

Another man arrives at the gates of heaven. "Religion?" "Baptist."

"Go to room eighteen, but be very quiet as you pass room eight."

A third man arrives at the gates. "Religion?"

"Jewish."

"Go to room eleven, but be very quiet as you pass room eight."

The man says, "I can understand there being different rooms for different religions, but why must I be quiet when I pass room eight?"

St Peter says, "The Mormons are in room eight, and they think they're the only ones here."

(from "Plato and a Platypus Walk Into a Bar: Understanding Philosophy Through Jokes")
