Conversations with Fudge – Fudge Goes to the Church
Copyright © 2017
Mel: Hey Fudge, you sure look spiffy today.
Fudge:I’ve been to church.
Mel: You went to church? Strange place for a dog, if you ask me.
Fudge: What is Episcopalian?
2
Mel: You mean the Episcopal Church? It’s like the Anglican Church in England. More than Protestant. Less than Catholic.
Fudge: All these are new terms to me. Were there dogs in the time of the Bible?
Mel: Indeed there were. In general, though, they weren’t thought of highly back in those days.
Fudge: That explains everything.
3
Mel: Why, what happened?
Fudge: They wouldn’t let me in.
Mel: They don’t usually allow dogs in church, you know.
Fudge: What about heaven?
4
Mel: Heaven is for doing good deeds.
Fudge: I’m running to get your shoes. Where did you leave them?
Mel: Fudge, heaven is for people who do good deeds.
Fudge: You mean, what, out of bounds?
5
Mel: I don’t think dogs go to heaven. Even the good ones.
Fudge: So when you get to heaven, I won’t be there waiting for you.
Mel: I guess not. But you’ll be there in my heart.
Fudge: OK, now I don’t feel so bad.
6
Mel: Feel so bad about what?
Fudge: About what I did on their front lawn.
Mel: Of the church? Shame on you.
Fudge: So go clean it. You’re the heaven candidate baby, not me.
