A man is standing in front of what appears to be God in Heaven, standing at a podium, with a long feather quill and a scroll. Behind him, inset in clouds, is a set of iron-wrought gates topped with curling barbwire.
Heaven is usually depicted with golden gates, not a Dickensian style of fence with prison style barbwire on top of it.
Why is there barbwire along the fence? Where are the golden gates?
Anything to declare?

"Anything to declare" is a question asked by customs at airports. Heaven's gates are adorned with barbed wire, implying that, oddly, heaven has as high of security as international borders. It's funny because one might assume heaven would be free of worldly security concerns, but apparently not.
