Stuff my kids say

I am lucky to have two wonderful, smart children who look at the world with open and honest eyes. As soon as they could speak, they began to say marvellous things and question the why of it all. For a long time, I just listened and laughed at what they said and gradually forgot their wonderful words. In late 2010 I decided to start up a Facebook page and capture their words, to share them with everyone else.

God is Spoilt

5/5/2014

I was taking the minions to school and chatting to them about what might be happening over the day with them. Everything was light and happy with both minions rather chirpy and engaging in the discussion. 
"Dad, I think God is Spoilt" Minion1 threw out into the midst of our car conversation.
"Why, do you think that Minion1" I cautiously asked Minion1, as I had no idea where he was going with this, historically this was the case.
"Well dad, I mean like, He sits around in Heaven and lets people die without lifting a finger", pausing for a breathe "Like He also has all these angels that do all the smiting, plagues and blowing up walls, everyone exists to serve Him"
"Hmmmmm" that was the limit of my mental processing of this Minion1 logic, "Lets talk about it after school, ok mate?"
"Nah Dad" closed MInion1, ending a subject that could have been fascinating and further shed a light on his quirky brilliant mind.

God Theory

Minion1 “God theory has its disadvantages”

The minions, BB and I were out having dinner and minion 1 decided to share his thoughts on God. He began as follows: “Hey, Dad, the God theory has its disadvantages.”
“Do tell. This should be interesting,” I thought to myself.
“You know, who invented God if God is God?” he continued.
BB and I listened on with interest but he got caught up in the chicken or the egg. Or in his case, God or God?

Gods number

Minion1 “God’s number is 0040583″

The minions and I were talking about going to the beach and hoping the weather would be good. Minion2 declared she hated the beach and that she wasn’t interested. She further declared that the weather would be bad and so on in her positive way. Minion1 stated that the weather would be perfect and just right for surfing.
Being a Dad I said "unless you had God’s number, the weather would be what it would be."
Minion1 stated in a matter of fact tone to his sister “Gods number is 0040583″

Interesting that God has a mobile and it doesn’t seem to be a standard one.

I like the idea of God

Minion1 “I like the idea of God”

Minion1 came home from school rather excited but also pensive. I asked him what was going on and he informed me that he was going to be a Media Captain, a school reporter if you will. Pride flushed through me and I thought there is no way he can avoid writing now, after isn’t that what a reporter does? Minion1 then went on to explain that the school stipulates that the Media Captain must obey all the school rules, be a good Christian and follow all the religious teachings religiously. He was miffed to say the least, as he thought that the point of being a Media Captain was to take photos and write-up articles for the school and not sit in church.

I pointed out rather gently that he was attending a Christian School and that they get to make the rules about job descriptions and theological overhead. He couldn’t understand he considered both independent and that he was a good person and by extension that meant a good Christian. I had a chuckle at this and began to ask him what did he think about God and the schools need of worship and belief. He looked rather thoughtful, so I followed up and asked if he believed in God? He paused a moment and looked me in the eye and said “I like the idea of God”. A boy after my heart, a Church does not define how you worship, regardless of the God.

Left hand of God

Minion1 “Why do all God movies with God, always have him using his left hand?”

The minions and I had watched a series of movies as part of the movie madness lead up to Christmas. The grand old classics are rolled out  and you get you dose of Christmas, God and good spirits all in one. I can’t recall the movie but it came to a part where God was upset with Adam and Eve, and he was casting them out from the Garden. Minion1 was studying the screen very intently, when suddenly he turned to me and asked “Why do all God movies with God, always have him using his left hand?”.

I hadn’t noticed to be honest but a rather perceptive observation. I mentioned that perhaps he smote people with it. Minion1 loved the idea of smiting and spent the rest of the day left-handed smiting everything and anything in the house. The spiders trembled on this day!

Alien Gods

Minion1 ‎”I may be wrong but there is life out there, of course God created only humans…..do aliens have their own God?” 

This one came about as we were driving along in the car, Minion1 and Minion2 were talking about God and how he created all things. The conversation wandered along between them, a theological debate with innocence of a childs perception when he piped up and asked me the alien question.
