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. 
Stuffmykidssay (SMKS) is intended to be a light-hearted place: please treat it as such.

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.
