    Heavenly Divorce

    A young bride and groom were on their way to their wedding ceremony when suddenly, theer was a terrible automobile accident, and both were killed.


    The souls of the young lovers approached the gates of heaven and were met by St. Peter.

    "Welcome to heaven!" Peter said warmly. "Do you have any questions for me?"

    The young lovers looked at each other affectionately and asked, "We were just about to be married when we died. Is it possible for us to be married in heaven?"

    St. Peter scratched his head and tugged at his long beard. "Hmmm.... no one has ever asked this before. You wait here while I go find out!"

    Well, one month went by, then two months, waiting, waiting. As they sat there day after day, they began to wonder, "Gosh, suppose after a while, we are unhappy in our marriage. I wonder if divorce is allowed? We should have asked!"

    Finally, after three months, St. Peter returns with the answer: "Children, I am happy to inform you that, yet, you may be married in Heaven."

    The couple posed their new question and concern: "If we find that we are unhappy in our marriage, may we then get a divorce in Heaven?"

    St. Peter turned absolutely livid with anger: "It took me THREE MONTHS to find a priest in Heaven, and NOW you want me to find a LAWYER!"

    Actually, Jesus DID comment upon this, when the Sadducees and Pharisees were arguing about whether or not there is a ressurection from the dead, saying 'In heaven, people shall not marry, nor shall they be given in marriage, but shall be as the angels (presumably genderless)." But Jesus did not have a sense of humor.

    Well I mean St. Peter was furious about finding the lawyer thing. I mean he didnt even mention that Jesus forbid marriage people to get divorce, instead he's worry in finding a lawyer. He got guts indeed

    Typically a joke does not stand up well under close philosophical interrogation or piercing literary analysis. Perhaps thats because ITS ONLY A JOKE!

    Perhaps that was when Jesus was on vacation and St. Peter got a big head and thought he could run the place.

    Which begs the question: Where does one go on vacation when in heaven?
