How to get to Heaven – in Ireland
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 garage 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 candy 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……….’

[...] this week’s funnies, we have the power of not being reverent during prayer, how to get to heaven, how to witness to Mormons, and new strategies and alliances for stopping the Tube Sock Holocaust [...]

Well, if you had asked me, the way to get into heaven would be to be involved in a huge orgy, but I’m sorta perverted that way. (lol)
Made me laugh though.
