One day, heaven1 is beginning to fill up (due to the population explosion), so St. Peter decides to ask each person a question about the bible2 before they can enter. Three men stand at the pearly gates, waiting to get into heaven.

"How many wise men were there?" St. Peter asks the first man. "Three." He answers, and the trumpets3 sound, the gates open, and the first man enters.

"How long did the flood last?" St. Peter asks the second man. "Forty days and forty nights." He answers, and the trumpets sound, the gates open and the second man enters.

Seeing how easily the first two answered his trivia, St. Peter thinks of a much more difficult question for the second man. Finally, he asks, "What was the first thing Eve said to Adam in the Garden?"

The man thinks and thinks, but can't come up with an answer. "Boy, that's a hard one," he finally says. And the trumpets blow, the gates open, and the last man enters heaven.
