There was an English comedian of the 1960's-80's called Tommy Cooper and he had a wonderful joke relating to a child and religion, it goes like this:-


A new teacher at a school was giving his class some Religous Education.
"Who knocked down the walls of Jericho?" He asked, but nobody was forthcoming in raising their arm. "Come on now." He pointed to little Jimmy. "Jimmy, who knocked down the walls of Jericho?"

"I don't know, it wasn't me guv, honest." Jimmy replied, "I'm a good boy, I don't do things like that."

The teacher was amazed, after explaining to the class who knocked down the walls of Jericho he made his way to the Headmaster's [Principal's] office.

"I feel your children have not an iota of Religous teaching." He told his new boss. "I just asked the pupils of 3C, 'Who knocked down the walls of Jericho?', when one of the children replied, 'It wasn't me guv, I don't do things like that'. Well Headmaster, what do you have to say about that?"

"Oh." The Headmaster exclaimed. "Which child was it that you asked?"

"It was little Jimmy Ridley" The teacher replied.

"Well." The Headmaster said. "He is a very honest boy, if he said that he did not knock down the walls of Jericho, then I believe him. He did not knock down the walls of Jericho."

The teacher was outraged. He left the office, walked out the school and drove to the County Council's Education offices. He entered the office of the Head of Education.

"You would not believe how bad Frizzlewaite School is. They are a disgrace to the country's education system." The teacher said.

"Calm down, calm down." The Head of Education said. "Tell me what happened."

"I took a class of fourteen year-olds in Religous Education." The teacher began. "I asked this boy called Jimmy Ridley, 'Who knocked down the walls of Jericho?', to which he replied, 'I don't know, it wasn't me guv honest.'"

"Hardly an excuse to burst in her complaining about Frizzlewaite School so boldly." The Head of Education said.

"I've not finished yet!" The teacher said. "I then went to the Headmaster's office and told him what Jimmy Ridley had said, to which the Headmaster replied, 'He's an honest boy, and if he said he did not knock down the walls of Jericho down, he didn't knock them down!'. There what do you think of that!"

"Well, no need to get in such a state about it. I will.....

A little boy was overheard praying: "Lord, if you can't make me a better boy, don't worry about it. I'm having a real good time like I am."

To quote a pretty famous Person ... "Let the little children come to me , and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these. " and "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the Kingdom of God. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the Kingdon of Heaven."
