26 January 2009
An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the world.
So he bought a plane ticket and took
a trip to Orlando , thinking that he would start by
working his way across the USA from South to North.
On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a
golden telephone mounted on the wallwith a sign that read '$10,000 per call'.
The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by
what the telephone was used for.
The priest replied that it was a direct lineto heaven and
that for $10,000 you could talk to God.
The American thanked the priest and went along his way.
Next stop was in Atlanta .
There, at a very large cathedral,
he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it.
He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in Orlando
and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was.
She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 hecould talk to God. 'O.K., thank you,' said the American .
He then travelled all across America, Europe, England, Japan, New Zealand.
In every church he saw the same golden telephone with the same
'$US10,000 per call' sign under it.
The American, decided to travel to
Australia to see if Australians had the same phone.
He arrived at Sydney, Australia and again, in the first church
he entered, there was the same golden telephone,
but this time the sign under it read '40 cents per call.'
The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign.
'Father, I've travelled all over the world
and I've seen this same golden telephone in many churches.
I'm told that it is a direct line to Heaven,
but in all of them the price was $10,000 per call.
Why is it so cheap here?'
The priest smiled and answered, 'You're in God's country, Australia , son - it's a local call'.
