Wondering if there is a dog
21-Oct-2008Some parents of kids in Mr 5’s class have expressed concern that the school-hours scripture classes are a little too “Fire And Brimstone!” Some kids have been coming home from school talking about death and pretty upset about their parents’ prospects for admission into heaven.
We hadn’t noticed anything particularly odd. A Moses colouring activity came home with a light saber once. At age 5 everything looks better with a light saber.
I decided to check out what Mr 5 thought about his scripture classes.
I don’t have this captured perfectly, but you’ll get the gist:
They’re always talking about God and Jesus. Mostly Jesus. They really like Jesus.
Jesus is really powerful. She has some big dogs who can cure blindness by licking people.
Really big dogs.
He hasn’t heard the joke about the dyslexic insomniac agnostic.
