Gods Telephone

Keedowah

An American decided to write a book about famous
churches around the world. For his first chapter he decided to write
about famous Irish cathedrals.

So he bought a plane ticket and made the trip to
Dublin, thinking that he would work his way around
Ireland.On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs
when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read "€10,000 per call".

The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was
strolling by what the telephone was used for. The priest replied that
it was a direct line to heaven and that for €10,000 you could talk to
God.
The American thanked the priest and went along his way.

Next stop was in Waterford. There, at a very large cathedral,
he saw the same golden telephone with the same sign under it. He
wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in Dublin and he
asked a nearby nun what its purpose was. She told him that it was a
direct line to heaven and that for €10,000 he could talk
to God. "O.K., thank you", said the American.

He then travelled to Cork, Kerry, Limerick and Mayo
and in every church he saw the same golden telephone with the
same "€10,000 per call" sign under it. With his first chapter going
well, he left Mayo and traveled in to Galway, and again at his first stop at The Galway Cathedral, there was the same golden telephone, but
this time the sign under it read
"10c per call."

The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign.
"Father, I've travelled all over Ireland, and I've seen this same
golden telephone in many cathedrals and churches. I'm told that it is a
direct line to heaven, but in the rest of the country the price was €10,000
per call. Why is it so cheap here?" The priest smiled
and answered,

"You're in Galway now my son......... it's a Local call".
