Oaky dokey....

My friend Doris has the grandchildren staying at the moment, and as usual Sadie is in full theological mode.

Apparently she woke him from his afternoon snooze yesterday, by pushing a toy snake in his ear and hissing loudly.....and once she had his full attention, started the questions.

'Grandad, do you have a daddy?'

'No,' said Doris, 'he died a long time ago.'

'So where is he now?'

'In the ground.'

She thought about that for a moment and then resumed her investigation.

'Is he not in heaven then?'

'Well, hopefully his soul is...'

'Grandad, is it true that you can speak again once you get to heaven?'

'Oh yes, definitely.'

'How do you know that though?'

'Because, Sadie...when you get to the Pearly Gates, you have to ask to get in!'

Doris is an atheist, but I think he did rather well!
