Daily Joke: 3 Nuns Die and Appear in Front of the Pearly Gates
One stormy winter evening, three nuns were traveling by bus to attend a church service in a nearby town. It was a bumpy ride because of the bad weather, and occasionally, the driver stopped the bus because he couldn't see the road ahead.
The nuns worried that the terrible weather conditions might keep them from reaching the church on time. It was getting dark outside, and the thunderstorm was so intense that every now and then, a bolt of lightning startled the passengers, shaking the vehicle.
"Answer my questions and heaven is yours," said Saint Peter. | Photo: Shutterstock
"Oh, Lord. Have mercy upon us. Save us all from this harsh weather and take us safely to our destination," said one nun, raising her hands in prayer with eyes closed.
"Amen," chanted the other two nuns.
Eventually, the bus came to a halt in the middle of nowhere, and the bus driver turned to the passengers and said,
"I can't see the road ahead because it's raining so heavily and even the headlights aren't working. I'm sorry, but it seems we can't move further ahead until the weather gets better."
Everyone on the bus, including the nuns, was petrified, but there was nothing they could do except wait. An hour passed, and many passengers had gone to sleep, while others seemed much more frightened than before.

One of the nuns started coughing uncontrollably, and the other two asked her what the problem was.
"I can't breathe. I'm claustrophobic, and I feel like someone is strangling me. I need to get some fresh air," cried the nun as she continued to cough.
"Wait, we'll come with you," replied the other two nuns. One of the nuns turned on her phone's torchlight and stepped out of the bus. Within a minute or two, the phone's battery died, and they were unable to decipher the path ahead.
They were on their way back to the bus when suddenly, one of them tripped on a huge stone and fell straight down the hill. The other two nuns ran to save her and ended up falling as well.
As a result, the three of them succumbed to the massive fall, and after some time, found themselves at the Pearly Gates, where Saint Peter awaited them. He gestured with his hand, asking them to walk forward, and they complied.
"Dear ladies! I can let you in only if you answer my questions correctly," said Saint Peter.
He then called the first nun and asked, "What was the name of the first woman?"
"Eve," answered the nun. Saint Peter smiled at her and let her in.
Next, he called the second nun, and asked, "Where did Eve live?"
"In the Garden of Eden," replied the nun. Saint Peter flashed a wide grin and told her she was free to enter heaven.
Now, it was the turn of the third and last nun, so she was called forward and asked, "What was the first thing Eve said when she saw Adam?"
"Oh, that's a hard one," said the nun, scratching her head.
"Yeah, you're in..." replied Saint Peter.
The third nun was the lucky one!
