Some quotes from our resident philosopher:
SP: I'd like the door put back on the cubby house [at church]
Me: No, we decided to take it off because people were being unkind to each other
SP: Why? [Do kids have any other questions?]
Me: Because we're all human beings
SP: Are girls human too?
And then at breakfast this morning, after reading about Peter denying Christ
Petrina: He [that's Peter] did the wrong thing, but Jesus forgave him.
SP: No, God forgave him, but Jesus didn't
Us: Why?
SP: Because he couldn't forgive him while he was dying [Ed. previously wrote "on the cross", Petrina reminded me what SP actually said last night]
Us: ???????? ... eventually we pointed out that Jesus forgave Peter after his resurrection, when he wasn't on the cross any more.
Any theologians care to tackle that one?
