ONE TIME WHEN I WAS LITTLE, I WAS IN INDIAN RIVER, MI. THERE THEY HAVE A CHURCH CALLED "THE CROSS IN THE WOODS", IT HAS ONE OF THE LARGEST CRUCIFIXES THERE. SO I THOUGHT THAT JESUS WAS ACTUALLY THAT SIZE, AND I ASKED MY COUSIN, AND SHE TOLD THE WHOLE FAMILY, THEY STILL TEASE ME ABOUT IT, IT WAS SO EMBARRASING.

When I was 7 years old, the nun in religious instructions asked the class who lived in the garden of Eden? So I proudly raised my hand and said Adam Beneve. She thought I said Adam and Eve. So she said "Right!" Then she told the story of Adam and Eve and I learned that it wasn't a man named Adam Beneve.

My best friend and I met secretly to dig a hole in between our yards. We were convinced that we could dig down to where Satan lived and tell him that he was stupid and he would stop being mean.

About 2 or 3 feet in to digging the hole, a thunderstorm came, and at the first strike of lightning, we were convinced he was trying to get us so we ran home and didn't go near the hole for weeks.

As a child i got very upset after being told the story of jesus' death at nursery by one of the teachers (what kind of teacher does that?!) being only 3 years old i didn't understand that he was killed as an adult and thought that someone had gone to the cattle shed and killed baby jesus by hitting him on the head with a cross.

I used to believe when I was little that we weren't responsible for our actions, because God created us and so essentially set us up into certain scenarios etc. etc. I did whatever the ffffff I wanted for a while and then realized that I couldn't :(

I thought Mary's real name was Virgin Mary, so I would always correct people if they just called her Mary. I never understood the Virgin partuntil later; nobody would explain it to me.

My last name is Carpenter. I used to really believe I was related to Jesus. I even quoted verses in the bible where it said that Jesus was a "carpenter".

When I was a kid parents convienced that there is a magical old guy that controls the world from the clouds. They called him God, I think. Now that I am older and don't believe in fairy tales, I know better

I used to believe Jesus looked like The statue of Lincoln. I was 3 or 4 when my family went to DC. The statue of Lincoln was the biggest person I had ever seen and it reminded me of the bible story of children sitting at Jesus' feet. I had that picture in my head for years.

As a child I had always wondered why we called God, "God" when he had a proper name.

Our Father who art in Heaven,
Harold be thy name.

For Christmas our tree topper has always been an Angel. A BLONDE angel. I had become completely convinced at age 7 that i could never become an Angel because I was born a brunette and that only blondes could go to heaven, the next year my grandma made her own Angel tree topper...... with BROWN hair thats been used ever since.
