A little boy didn't want to put a dime from his allowance into the offering plate. His mother decided to use some quick, creative reasoning to convince him.
She leaned over and whispered, "Quick, drop it in the plate. It's tainted!"
The boy quickly dropped the coin in.
A few moments later, he whispered back, "Mommy, why was the money tainted?"
She smiled and replied, "Because 'taint yours, and 'taint mine—it's God's!"
