Your Liberty is Our Interest

couple goes to heaven

On their way to get married, a young Catholic couple is involved
in a fatal car accident.

The couple find themselves sitting outside the Pearly Gates
waiting for St. Peter to process them into Heaven. While waiting, they
begin to wonder: Could they possibly get married in Heaven?

When St. Peter showed up, they asked him.

St. Peter said, ‘I don’t know. This is the first time anyone has
asked. Let me go find out,’ and he leaves.

The couple sat and waited, and waited. Two months passed and the
couple are still waiting. As they waited, they discussed that if they
were allowed to get married in Heaven, what was the eternal aspect of it
all. ‘What if it doesn’t work?’ they wondered, ‘Are we stuck together
forever?’

After yet another month, St. Peter finally returns, looking
somewhat bedraggled.

‘Yes,’ he informs the  couple, ‘you can get married in Heaven.’

‘Great!’ said the couple, ‘But we were just wondering, what if
things don’t work out? Could we also get a divorce in Heaven?’

St. Peter , red-faced with anger, slammed his clipboard onto the
ground.

‘What’s wrong?’ asked the frightened couple.

‘OH, COME ON!’, St.  Peter shouted, ‘It took me three months to
find a priest up here!  Do you have any idea how long it’ll take me to
find a Lawyer?!’
