the cleric and the bus driver

A cleric and a bus driver stood before God. God said to the cleric, "I condemn you to hell."

The cleric is shocked and cries, "But I am a man who has spent my life serving you! I gave the weekly sermons to remind the people of Your glory!"

God replied, "Yes, but your sermons put the people's hearts to sleep. Your congregation never remembered Me."

God then says to the bus driver, "I grant you heaven."

The bus driver is shocked and cries, "But looking back on my life, I was just a simple bus driver, and not even a good one at that!"

God replied, "Yes you were by far the worst bus driver that ever lived, but your passengers would remember Me when they cried out to Me for help!"
