At midnight, a middle-aged man was waiting at a train station to
cross the country to back east to see his relative. As he
stepped up into the train car he noticed that the car was almost
empty except a young beautiful nun sitting by herself reading a
Bible.

The man came and sat near her hoping to get some companionship
during the long ride. However, the nun was paying no attention
to him. She just kept on reading the Bible without even looking
up to him or saying a word. As time went by slowly and silently,
it made the man more and more anxious to start conversation. But
he did not know how or where to start. The man then put his hand
on the nun's lap.

The nun blushed with a little bit of anger. She turn around and
said, "Dear sir, do you believe in God?"

He replied" Yes, I do."

"Have you read the Bible? You know it is wrong to put your hand
on my lap. Perhaps you should go home and read line 23 on page
157." she asked.

The man withdrew his hand and sat quietly till the train reached
the East coast. Next day, people found out that he shot himself
in his room while the Bible lay open on page 157. The line 23
read: "Heaven is a little bit higher."
