When I was little, I thought the nerve twitching you would get in bed at night was your guardian angel telling you to move over... so I always did.

I used to believe that the thunder was made when the angels were bowling, the lightning from strobe lights at their bowling alley, and the rain was Jesus crying because we sinned too much.

My cousin and I thought if we dug a hole deep enough in the ground we would reach the devil and then we could kill him. We would be digging the hole thinking of all the great rewards we would get for killing the devil.

Whenever my cousin and I were very young, she would be afraid to walk across the floor after getting in trouble because she thought Satan would reach up and burn her.

I used to think that god looked like the Mattress giant... Or Mr. Clean. I could'nt decide because Mr. Clean and the mattress giant looked exactly alike.

When I had chicken pox, I went to the zoo one day. And there was a lion standing majestically in its own little island surrounded by a moat.

For a moment I thought the lion was Aslan. So I began doing the a-salamaya reverence to it- but quickly realized that it was a regular lion and not Aslan.

If you want to find out why is this belief in the Religion Characters category, read The Chronicles of Narnia.

As a child I believed that to be considered nice people had to pretend to believe in some imaginary things. These included Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Stork who brought babies, Jesus and God. I don't think I was a little skeptic, but I didn't believe any of the above were real. I just thought those were things that nice people pretended were real. I was in college before I found out that there was an historical Jesus, and I was absolutely astonished.

When I was younger, I asked my mother ' does anybody live in the clouds? ' and she replied with 'yes,God does.' So it began that everytime I seen the clouds, I would wave to them and wonder if God could see me. When a day came that there were no clouds, I began to cry because I thought he moved away.

My favourite childhood religious belief comes from my mom's First Grade students, as it was apparently disproven on the playground: "I asked my grandma - Cupid's not the son of God; Jesus is!"

Now, now, different families have different beliefs... ^^

I used to think that spelling "G-d" instead of "God" (as per Orthodox Jewish practice) was insulting, as it implied that you didn't care enough about God to spell his name correctly. I marched myself up to the rabbi, full of righteous indignation, and demanded that he fix it so it wouldn't say "g'duh"

Growing up in West Virginia, my mom's friend and her siblings used to run across abandoned mines b/c the rumblings of built up carbon gas they heard was thought to be the devil trying to reach up and pull them into the mine below!

top belief!

Whenever I saw the movie Joseph and the Amazing Technocolor Dreamcoat, it showed the pharoe dressed like Elvis at one point and singing like him. (This was a joke because they called Elvis the King and whatever). I really thought that in real life Elvis was the pharoe and that this didn't take place in the biblical times, but when my parents were kids.
