Beware before taking God up on His offer

Biden is killed in a traffic accident. His soul comes to Heaven's Gate and is received by Peter. "Welcome to heaven," says Peter. “There is a small problem. I can't just let you in. We seldom see such a high-ranking person at Heaven's Gate, you see, so we don't immediately know what to do with you. ”

"No problem, just let me in," says the President. “Well, I would like to, but I have orders from above. This is what we will do: you will spend 1 day in hell and 1 day in heaven. Then you can choose where you want to spend eternity. ”

"Really, I already know. I want to go to heaven," says the President. “I'm sorry, but we have our rules here,” says Peter. For example, the President is escorted by Peter to the elevator and they go down, down and even further down to hell. The doors open and suddenly he is in the middle of a beautiful green golf course. At a distance is the clubhouse with all his old friends and other politicians with whom he has worked.

They are all very happy and dressed in evening wear. They run to him, shake his hand and recall the good times they had when they got richer and richer at the expense of the citizens. They play a nice game of golf and with dinner they have lobster, caviar and champagne. The devil himself is also in attendance, who is truly a friendly fellow and enjoyed dancing and telling jokes.

They have a great time together and before he realizes it is time to leave. Everyone says goodbye to him and waves as the elevator goes up. The elevator goes up, up, up and when it stops, Peter is already waiting for it. "Now is the time to visit Heaven."

Heaven is very cozy. He spends his time accompanying happy souls who dance from cloud to cloud, play the harp and sing. So they are having a good time, but before he realizes it, 24 hours have passed and Peter comes to him. Well, you spent a day in hell and a day in heaven. Make your choice now for eternity. ”

The President pauses. Then he replies, "Well, I never would have said it before, I mean, heaven was great, but I still think I'm better off in hell." Thus, Peter escorts him to the elevator and he rushes down, down and down. The doors of the elevator open and it stands in an arid landscape covered with dirt and trash. He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags, while more and more trash falls down.

The devil comes to him and puts his arms around him. "" I don't understand anything about it, "stammers Biden. “I was here yesterday and there was a golf course and a club house. We ate lobster and caviar and drank champagne. We had a blast here. Now there is nothing but a barren landscape full of trash and my friends look awful. What happened?"

The devil looks at him, smiles and says: “Yesterday we were on a campaign. . . today you have chosen. ”

The same story could be written about Trump or anyone. Using Biden is a political statement and thus the OP is about politics not religion.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I will shed some light here; all but 2 seem to have missed the point (4)
I was surprised people did not react, and I was amazed they could not see the joke in it. All the people I showed it in Holland could laugh about it, and I showed it with the name Rutte (Dutch PM), not with the name Biden. I also anticipated getting less reactions when using the name Biden instead of D.Trump. I am quite sure the American people would have reacted differently.

So, Here you could not have been more wrong. The OP-title was clear. I think I never voted in my life. So, for sure I had no political statement in my mind (4)

Originally it was not Biden, but the Dutch Prime Minister's name in the story
I just thought let's use the name Biden, as most are Americans and maybe don't know Rutte


I thought "I could use the name D.Trump", esp. because golf was mentioned
But as we have had that name in so many threads already
I choose the name Biden

Notes:
1) I put it in "joke-sub-forum", hence I thought it was not needed to add a note "don't feel politically offended"
2) Usually I don't create joke threads on RF. This was an exception (probably the last (no joke). Hence I probably should have added these notes:p
3) Clearly it was not political, because as far as I know, neither Biden nor Rutte ever played golf
4) It was the devil who was on campaign, not Biden, so the joke was not even about Biden/Rutte; it was about don't believe everything you see
5) How could it be political, I know nothing about Biden. I have read nothing about him in the newspapers yet, except that people want him to come out
