Recently a teacher, a garbage collector, and a lawyer wound up together at the Pearly Gates.
St. Peter informed them that in order to get into Heaven, they would each have to answer one
question.
St. Peter addressed the teacher and asked, "What was the name of the ship that crashed into the
iceberg? They just made a movie about it." The teacher answered quickly, "That would be the
Titanic." St. Peter let him through the gate.
St. Peter turned to the garbage man and, figuring Heaven didn't REALLY need all the odors that
this guy would bring with him, decided to make the question a little harder: "How many people
died on the ship?" Fortunately for him, the trash man had just seen the movie and answered,
"about 1,500." "That's right! You may enter."
St. Peter then turned to the lawyer. "Name them."

It is quasi-Biblical. Peter at the Pearly Gats comes an inference of two different New Testament passages. Revelations mentions that the gates of Heaven are made from Pearl. Peter was entrusted with the keys of Heaven and Earth. The two passages are not compatable theologically but through the imagination of Man this concept has entered the popular mainstream, albeit at least 1500 years ago.

Goodness, the poor lawyer could have died of starvation in the time it would take him to list all 1500 lost souls.
