A Muslim was killed in a car accident. He arrives at the gates of heaven. St. Peter says "I'm St. Peter. Welcome to Heaven". The Muslim says "Nice to meet you Peter but I'm a Muslim and I want to meet Muhammad." St. Peter says "Sure, no problem. Climb up that ladder behind you and you will meet Muhammad." The Muslim climbs up the ladder, gets to the top and there stands Moses. Moses says "Hi I'm Moses. Welcome to Heaven". The Muslim is very excited - "Moses, it's such an honour to meet you. But like I told St. Peter, I'm a Muslim and I really want to meet Muhammad". Moses says "No problem. Climb up the ladder behind you and you will meet Muhammad." The Muslim climbs up the ladder, gets to the top, and he can't see anything but bright light. He sees this figure before him and asks "Who are you?" The figure responds - "I am God. Nice to meet you. Welcome to Heaven". God walks over and shakes his hand. The Muslim is stunned - he can hardly speak. He says to God "Sir, it is such an honour to meet you - I can't believe it - this place is great. But I'm a Muslim and, no disrespect intended, but I really want to meet Muhammad." God says "Oh. You're here to see Muhammad. I see. No problem. Have a seat. Get comfortable. Can I get you some coffee or something to eat?" The Muslim says "I would love a cup of coffee" God yells into the kitchen... "Hey Muhammad. two coffees!"

Not trying to poop on a joke, but after thinking this one over I am not so sure it is very funny.
Jesus washed the feet of the desciples(? sp) at the last supper and was reputed to be a very humble individual. Presuming that Muhammed was equally humble, being served by either one could be quite an honor.
Nothing to laugh at, but a very special moment in anybody's life (or death).

A very good point Bruce. Hope I didn't get your back up.

Ok, I am chilled. Just that something about it struck me as a bit off center when I read it the first time and it took me a few minutes thought to decide what it was. No problem from my end.
