English Original
On their way to get married, a loving couple is killed in a car accident. They wait outside Heaven's Gate for St. Peter to process their entry. While waiting, they ask if they can get married in Heaven. St. Peter replies, "I don't know; this is the first time anyone has asked. Let me find out," and leaves.
The couple waits for months and begins to have second thoughts about an eternal marriage. "What if it doesn't work out? Are we stuck together forever?" they wonder. St. Peter returns, looking weary, and says, "Yes, you can get married in Heaven."
"Great," they reply, "but what if things don't work out? Can we also get a divorce in Heaven?"
St. Peter, red-faced, slams his clipboard to the ground. "What's wrong?" the couple exclaims.
"Geez!" St. Peter cries out. "It took me three months to find a priest up here! Do you have any idea how long it's going to take me to find a lawyer?"

一对爱侣在去结婚的路上遭遇致命车祸。他们在天堂之门外等候圣彼得办理进入手续。等待时,他们询问是否能在天堂结婚。圣彼得回答:“我不知道,这是第一次有人问。我去查一下。”说完便离开了。
这对情侣等了几个月,开始对永恒的婚姻产生了疑虑。“如果婚姻不顺利怎么办?我们要永远绑在一起吗?”他们思忖着。又过了一个月,圣彼得略显疲惫地回来了,告知他们:“是的,你们可以在天堂结婚。”
“太好了,”他们说,“但如果婚姻不顺利呢?我们也能在天堂离婚吗?”
圣彼得气得满脸通红,把写字板摔在地上。这对受惊的夫妇惊呼:“怎么了?”
“天哪!”圣彼得喊道,“我花了三个月才在这儿找到一个牧师!你知道我要花多久才能找到一个律师吗?”
