She 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, in unison.
"If I cleaned the church every day, mowed the yard, and kept everything neat and tidy, would that get me into Heaven?" asked the teacher.
Again, the answer was, "No!" By now the teacher was starting to smile, thinking to herself, "Hey, this was fun!"
"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?" she asked them again.
Once again, they all answered, "No!" She was just bursting with pride for them.
"Well," she continued, "then how can I get into Heaven?"
A six-year-old boy shouted out, "YOU GOTTA BE F***IN' DEAD!"
