A fellow finds himself in front of the Pearly Gates. St. Peter explains that it's not so easy to get in heaven. There are some criteria before entry is allowed.
St. Peter asked the man, "Were you religious in life? Did you Attend church services?"
"No."
St. Peter told him, "That's bad. Were you generous? Did you give money to the poor? To charities?"
"No."
"That too was bad. Did you do any good deeds? Helped your neighbor? Anything?"
"No."
St. Peter was becoming concerned.
Exasperated, St. Peter said, "Look, everybody does something nice sometimes. Work with me, I'm trying to help. Now think!"
The man said, "There was this old lady. I came out of a store and found her surrounded by a dozen Hell's Angels. They had taken her purse and were shoving her around, taunting and abusing her. I got so mad I threw my bags down, fought through the crowd, and got her purse back. I then helped her to her feet. I then went up to the biggest, baddest biker and told him how despicable, cowardly and mean he was and then spat in his face".
"Wow", said Peter, "That's impressive. When did this happen"?
"Oh, about 10 minutes ago", replied the man.
