A Priest and a Cab Driver

A priest and a cab driver arrived at the Pearly Gates at the same time. After interviewing both, St. Peter opened the gates and let the cab driver into heaven, but he told the priest to have a seat and await further consideration.
Outraged, the priest complained, "How can you let that man into heaven before me ? I was a priest for 50 years, and I gave thousands of sermons ! All he did was drive a car around the city. ! "
"That is right," St.Peter answered. " And when you preached, people slept. But when this man drove, people prayed. "
