Subject: RE: Origins: Methodist Pie
St Peter was standing at the Pearly Gates when he saw three women making their way up the road to Heaven. When the first woman reached him, he asked her why she would be entitled to enter Heaven. She told him that she had been a nun, working with the poor, teaching and healing for many years. "Welcome to Heaven," he said.

The second woman was Jewish. She said, "Well, I tried to live the best life I could. I struggled to raise my children right, and I always kept kosher." "Welcome to Heaven," the saint replied.

The third woman was a Methodist. Again St. Peter asked why she would be entitled to enter Heaven. Her answer was simple. "I have the casserole."
