I'm not your mother, dad!
A famous priest died and went to heaven. Just before the gates of heaven, he sees this long queue, and thought "Well, I'm a priest, I've been preaching and worshipping God every single day of my life, I don't need to stand in the queue, do I?" and went straight up to St. Peter, who was reading everyone's profiles at the door.
"Excuse me, are you St. Peter?", the priest asked.
"Yes, why?"
"Oh, could you let me in? I've been a good priest my whole life, and I'm anxious to see what heaven is like"
"I'm sorry, you need to wait just like everyone else. God loves everyone but this is not an anar--". Suddenly, St. Peter sees Mario, a simple taxi driver, standing in the queue humbly waiting for his turn. "Hey, Mario, why are you standing there? Welcome to heaven, you can get in now, there's a limousine waiting for you at the end of this road". And Mario obeyed, entering heaven right away.
"Hey, what happen to this not being an anarchy?", asked the priest.
"Oh, sorry", St. Peter apologised, "Let me explain myself: You were a priest, right? You worshipped God and whatnot, preached every single day of your life and tried to show God's love to every troubled soul you met."
"Yeah, exactly", complained the priest, "I've been a good servant".
"You know, most people that went to your church did listen to your preaching and all, but they didn't really have much faith, nor they felt closer to God after listening to your words. It felt more like a duty to them. Mario, on the other hand, was a taxi driver. And thus, he turned even his atheist passengers into passionate God fearing devout Christians full of faith by just giving them a ride, now you try to beat that!"
