A man arrives at the gates of Heaven and is greeted by an angel.
“You didn’t do anything perfect, but you didn’t do anything bad either,” the angel says. “If you tell me about something really extraordinary you did, I’ll let you in.”
The man thinks for a moment, then says, “One time I was driving down the street and I saw a gang of people cornering a young woman in an alley. I knew I had to do something, so I pulled over, got out of my car, and walked up to the biggest guy in the group. I slapped him in the face and said, ‘Listen! Leave him alone, or you’re going to have to deal with me!'”
The angel raises an eyebrow, impressed. “Wow! When did this happen?”
The man looks at his watch. “About five minutes ago.”
