Only a Glesga Kid Could Think Like This
I was testing the children in my local 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 neat and tidy, would that get me into Heaven?’
Again, the answer was, ‘NO!’
By now I was starting to smile. Hey, this was fun!
‘Well, then, if I was kind to animals and gave sweets to all the children, and loved my wife would that get me into Heaven?’, I asked them again.
Again, they all answered, ‘NO!’
I was just bursting with pride for them.
Well, I continued,’then how can I get into Heaven?’
A six-year-old boy from Glasgow shouted out, ‘YOU’VE GOT TAE BE FUCKIN’ DEID’
