 Heavenly Stroll
 
 It seems that a man who had just passed on was met by St. Peter at the
 pearly gates. St. Peter offered him the grand tour, and of course the
 man accepted.
 
 As they were strolling along, they passed many groups of people laughing
 and celebrating, praying and studying, and doing all kinds of things. Some
 were Christians and some were Moslems and some were Jews and some were
 Pagans.  There were even some Atheists, just marvelling at the beauty all
 around them! One of the groups they passed was having a picnic, and there
 were pink triangles and rainbow flags everywhere.
 
 "Aren't the colors pretty?" St. Peter asked. "They always make me so
 happy!"
 
 They continued on, and soon they came to a great wall. It was so high
 that no one could see over it, and so broad that no one could see around
 it.
 
 "What's in here?" the man asked.
 
 "Oh, I'd like to show you," St. Peter answered, "but I'm afraid we
 aren't allowed in there."
 
 "What?" the man exclaimed. "Why ever not?"
 
 St. Peter sighed. "Well," he said, "you see that's where we keep the
 fundamentalists. They're just happier thinking they're the only ones up
 here."
