A Simple Lesson in Logic
A fourth-grade teacher decided to teach her class about logic.
“Imagine this,” she said. “A man is standing in a boat in the middle of a river, fishing. Suddenly, he loses his balance, falls into the water, and starts splashing and shouting for help. His wife hears him, knows he can’t swim, and runs toward the bank. Why do you think she ran there?”
One little girl raised her hand and asked, “To withdraw all his money?”

At the start of the table was a big pile of apples. A nun placed a note next to them that said, “Take only one. God is watching.”
Further down the line, there was a tray full of chocolate chip cookies.
One child leaned over and whispered, “Take as many as you want. God is busy watching the apples.”

A young girl was discussing whales with her teacher.
The teacher explained that it’s physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because its throat is too small.
The girl replied, “But Jonah was swallowed by a whale.”
The teacher insisted it wasn’t possible.
The girl said, “When I get to Heaven, I’ll ask Jonah.”
The teacher replied, “What if Jonah went to hell?”
The girl answered, “Then you can ask him.”

A man next to him said, “Eating too much chocolate is bad for your health.”

The boy said, “No. He minded his own business.”
