They soon found themselves at the pearly gates. St. Peter greeted all three.
"Welcome sisters, Mother superior. What a great honor to have you here." he said. Then a little more softly, he said.
"Unfortunately, we've had a few people slipping into heaven disguised as nuns. I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you some skill testing questions."
The first novice stepped up bravely and said
"Ask your question St. Peter. I'm not afraid."
"Well then" St. Peter said. "Who were the first man and woman and where did they live?"
The novice's face brightened.
"Oh that's easy St. Peter! Their names were Adam and Eve and they lived in the garden of Eden."
"Correct!" St. Peter said. Then he pressed the buzzer on his lectern and opened the pearly gates.
The second novice stepped up.
"Ask your question St. Peter, I'm not afraid." She said.
"Well" St. Peter asked. " What were Adam and Eve forbidden to do?"
The Novice smiled.
"Oh, that's easy St. Peter! They were forbidden to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge."
"Right again!" Said St. Peter, and buzzed her in.
The mother superior stepped up.
"You've been in the game a bit longer, Mother Superior" St. Peter said. "So your question is a little more challenging. What is the first thing Eve said when she saw Adam?"
The Mother Superior stood there frowning in concentration.
"Gee, that's a hard one!" she said finally.
"Correct again!" Said St. Peter, and buzzed her in.
