[rec.humor.funny] Quiet, please...

(Told over the holidays by my Lutheran mother-in-law.)

A recently demised fellow was being given a tour of Heaven. St. Peter
explained that Heaven not only had room enough for everybody, there were
rooms for everybody. 

He opened the first door, explaining, ``This is the Catholic room,'' and
inside the new arrival could see a large group of people kneeling and
saying Hail Mary. 

The next room was a noisy one -- shouts of ``Amen!'' and ``Hallelujah!''
could be heard through the door. ``The Baptist room,'' explained Peter.

The third room was silent, filled with contemplative souls.
``Presbyterians,'' Peter said. 

When they came to the fourth room, Peter stopped the newcomer.  ``Shh!''
he said. ``Be very quiet. These are the Lutherans, and they don't think
anybody else is here.''
