   After creating humans, God wanted to grant them great intellect. Therefore, He prepaired all the grey matter he could inside an humongous cauldron and assigned Saint Peter to distribute it to his proud creations.

   Saint Peter figured out that he couldn't just give all the humans intellect as they were too many, so he asked them to form a queue. Each one received a bowl which Peter himself filled with grey matter. 

   The queue lasted for days. Eventually, the caudron was emptied completely. However, there were still plenty of people waiting for their grey matter. Saint Peter rushed to God and informed him of the situation. The latter thought the situation through and came up with a solution:

"Just give them college degrees."
