Topic: How to get to Heaven from Ireland

[Clive]

A true story from an Irish Sunday School teacher
 
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 lawn, and kept everything
tidy, would that get me into heaven?'
 
Again, the answer was 'NO!'
 
Mary O'Reily asked, 'If I gave sweets 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?'
 
From the back little Sean O'Leary shouted, 'YUV GOTTA BE FOOKN' DEAD.'
 
It's a curious race, the Irish.  Brings a tear to the eye, doesn't it?
