>> EXPLANATION OF GOD:
>> "One of God's main jobs is making people. He makes them to replace the
>> ones that die, so there will be enough people to take care of things on
>> earth. He doesn't make grownups, just babies. I think because they are
>> smaller and easier to make. That way he doesn't have to take up his
>> valuable time teaching them to talk and walk. He can just leave that to
>> mothers and fathers."
>>
>> "God's second most important job is listening to prayers. An awful lot of
>> this goes on, since some people, like preachers and things, pray at times
>> beside bedtime. God doesn't have time to listen to the radio or TV
>> because of this. Because he hears everything, there must be a terrible
>> lot of noise in his ears, unless he has thought of a way to turn it off."
>>
>> "God sees everything and hears everything and is everywhere which keeps
>> Him pretty busy. So you shouldn't go wasting his time by going over your
>> mom and dad's head asking for something they said you couldn't have."
>>
>> "Atheists are people who don't believe in God. I don't think there are
>> any in Chula Vista. At least there aren't any who come to our church."
>>
>> "Jesus is God's Son. He used to do all the hard work, like walking on
>> water and performing miracles and trying to teach the people who didn't
>> want to learn about God. They finally got tired of him preaching to them
>> and they crucified him But he was good and kind, like his father, and he
>> told his father that they didn't know what they were doing and to forgive
>> them and God said O.K."
>>
>> "His dad (God) appreciated everything that he had done and all his hard
>> work on earth so he told him he didn't have to go out on the road
>> anymore. He could stay in heaven. So he did. And now he helps his dad out
>> by listening to prayers and seeing things which are important for God to
>> take care of and which ones he can take care of himself without having to
>> bother God. Like a secretary, only more important."
>>
>> "You can pray anytime you want and they are sure to help you because they
>> got it worked out so one of them is on duty all the time."
>>
>> "You should always go to church on Sunday because it makes God happy, and
>> if there's anybody you want to make happy, it's God!
>>
>> Don't skip church to do something you think will be more fun like going
>> to the beach. This is wrong. And besides the sun doesn't come out at the
>> beach until noon anyway."
>>
>> "If you don't believe in God, besides being an atheist, you will be very
>> lonely, because your parents can't go everywhere with you, like to camp,
>> but God can. It is good to know He's around you when you're scared, in
>> the dark or when you can't swim and you get thrown into real deep water
>> by big kids."
