A man died and approached the Pearly Gates. St. Peter told him heaven was getting crowded so he had to test people with the point system. If he got to 100 points he could enter.
The man told Peter that he gave to the poor. Peter marked him down for three points.
The man thought again, then said that he tithed. Peter added one point.
The man, desperately searching his memory, finally said that he never cussed. Peter added half a point.
By now the man got very frustrated and said that at this rate he could only get in by the grace of God. Peter replied, "Come on in!"
