A Lawyer in Heaven?
God greeted two newcomers to heaven. One was a preacher, the other was a lawyer. He ushered the preacher to a small shack and settled him in to his austere quarters; then led the lawyer to a huge, luxuriously appointed mansion.
"I don't understand," the lawyer puzzled. "That man was a preacher, and you gave him a shack. And yet, you've said I am to live in this luxurious, huge mansion. Why?"
God answered... "We've had lots and lots of preachers, here. But you, sir, are our very first LAWYER."
