The Pope in Heaven | 天堂里的教皇

点击查看中英对照

The Pope dies and goes to heaven. St. Peter greets him and says, "Glad to see you, we've got your place all ready." Peter then takes the Pope down the street and shows him his new home: a small but comfortable cottage with five rooms. Peter advises the Pope to settle in and then wander around to meet the other residents.

The Pope meets many old friends and makes several new ones over the next few days. One of these is a former lawyer who invites the Pope over for lunch. On arriving, the Pope is astounded to see a 45-room mansion, complete with a built-in sauna, a weight room, a beautiful library, and spacious, airy rooms.

After lunch, the Pope spots St. Peter on the street and says, "Not to complain, but I'm curious as to why I have a small cottage while the lawyer I just met has a stupendous mansion."

St. Peter replies, "Well, you see, we have many Popes up here, but only one lawyer."
