A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said,
>Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like."
>
>The Lord led the holy man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and
>the holy man looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round
>table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled
>delicious and made the holy man's mouth water.
>The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared
>to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that
>were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the
>pot of stew and take a spoonful, but because the handle was longer than
>their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The
>holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering The Lord
>said, "You have seen Hell." They went to the next room and opened the
>door. It was the same as the first one. There was the large round table
>with the large pot of stew, which made the holy man's mouth water. The
>people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the
>people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The holy man
>said, "I don't understand." It is simple," said The Lord, "it requires
>but one skill. You see, They have learned to feed each other, While the
>greedy think only of themselves."
