While perusing the Internet, I stumbled upon a video series called Kids Talk About God the Christian fundamentalist version of Art Linkletter’s Kids Say the Darndest Things.
Basically, a group of young children answered questions about religion in their typically simplistic, discombobulated, adorably childlike manner.
For example, when the question “What is Heaven?” was posed to a cute, pig-tailed, blonde girl (about 5 years old), she answered, “Heaven is a big, big place, and it’s very nice for you.”
When the tubby boy with the crew cut (10-ish) was asked, “What do they do in Heaven?” he responded, “It’s a place where you go to music every day, and learn songs because God has a big old choir.”
And when the adorable olive-complected girl (7-ish) with the plastic-rimmed librarian glasses was asked, “What do angels do?” she replied, “Angels come to my room and protect me from monsters.”
