dB-Paradox Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 First off, sorry it's been a very long time since I've posted anything. Facebook has been my friend. I'm on there ALL the time! Well, not all the time, just 100% of the time. lol But I really wanted to share a status update I posted tonight. I'm so proud of my smart little girl! I realize that she's only 6, and her mind might change as she gets older, but this is what happened tonight: Had an interesting dialogue with Chloe this evening after picking her up from VBS. I asked her what she did. "Sang and danced". I asked her what she learned. "I don't know". (Typical!) So, I looked at the paper she had. It said, 'Jesus died to save us'. I asked her if she leaned about Jesus. "Yes. And he died." Then I asked if Jesus was real. "No." Kids just know. If you can't feel it, smell it, see it, taste it, or hear it, it's not real. I wonder if she's already lost her belief in Santa? I agreed with her that Jesus is not real (at least not NOW). I hope she won't have to go through the religious brainwashing I went through. (My wife is still a Christian.) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♦ ficino ♦ Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 Great anecdote, dB! I'm the opposite of you - I find Ex-Chr a lot more interesting than FB. Anyway, hope to see you more around here and hope your daughter keeps her clarity of vision! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freeasabird Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 You must have a great Facebook circle. Mine is actually pretty lame to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dB-Paradox Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 This AM, my daughter mentioned Jesus again, and asked that we pretend her legs didn't work. She said that I was Jesus, and that I fixed her legs. So, I used a magical gesture, and healed her. Then I asked if that's what Jesus did. She said he healed, and he died, and he didn't come back. I asked once again if she thought he was real and she said no, because she can't shake his hand! lol!!! Nice to see you here again, Margee! And thank you, Buffetphan, my daughter is a lot smarter than I was at her age. I'll try to pop in more often. I'm starting holidays today, so it may not happen for a while. I'm actually going to meet a FB friend next week! Pretty excited about that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
