How to get to Heaven
I was testing children in my Dublin Sunday school class to see if they
understood the concept of getting to heaven.
I asked them, 'If I sold my house and my car, had a big jumble sale and gave
all my money to the church, would that get me into heaven?'
'NO!' the children answered.
'If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the garden, and kept everything
tidy, would that get me into heaven?'
Again, the answer was 'No!' By now I was starting to smile.
'Well, then, if I was kind to animals and gave sweeties to all the children,
and loved my husband, would that get me into heaven?'
Again, they all answered 'No!' I was just bursting with pride for them.
I continued, 'Then how can I get into heaven?'
A six year-old boy shouted out, 'YUV GOTTAE BE FOCKN' DEAD!'
