A Zebra Dies and Goes to Heaven

When he reaches the pearly gates he is stopped by Saint Peter.

"Welcome to Heaven" says Saint Peter, "you may now ask God one question".

The Zebra says, "oh good, I'm going to ask him if I'm a white horse with black stripes, or a black horse with white stripes!"

So the Zebra enters Gods' chamber and says, "God, am I a white horse with black stripes or a black horse with white stripes?"

God simply replies, "You are what You are".

Disappointed the Zebra returns to Saint Peter. "What did he say?" Asks Saint Peter.

"He said. 'You are what you are'" replied the Zebra sadly.

"Oh," said Saint Peter, "that means you're a white horse".

"How do you know that?" asked the Zebra.

"Well," explains Saint Peter, "if you were a black horse He would have said, 'You is what You is'".
