Buying hell
In medieval times, priests sold pieces of heaven to people for a hundred coins, and people bought them. A wise man was frustrated that people were buying them so he found a solution. He went to a priest and asked, "How much is all of hell? The priest looked surprised and asked, "Hell?" "Yes," he said. The priest without hesitation said: "Fifty coins." The man gave him the coins and took the certificate. He went and put it in town square, and said: "I have bought all of hell and I won't let any of you in." This man was Martin Luther.
