When I was about 8 I temporarily believed (well... had a theory, anyway) that there was a god for religion. Ie up in the sky there were several gods such as the christian god, allah, shiva, buddha (I think I thought buddha was a god then).

When I was about eight or nine, I was mystified by Psalm 23 - "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want". The all important comma was not apparent to me then, and I developed a sort of weird predestination as a result. I felt that if you were good, and God-fearing then you are allowed to exist without divine interference. Further, if you were fully developed, you'd just not need to bother Him. Which, very sadly, was the exact opposite of what I felt right then.

Nic

I used to think that God was a Cloud that wore pink gloves and purple converses and went around the whole world just smiling.

Lenny

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 :(

lauren

when i was about 6, my mom told me that god was everywhere. And i thought that when i changed in my room, god was watching me. i liked my privacy so i didnt change for a long time until my mom covinced me that god gave me my privacy.

Sabrina

I use to believe that angels lived above the clouds so when our family did some air traveling, I wanted to sit next to the window because I wanted to see the angels.

Grace

When I was a little girl, I imagined God up in heaven with a big book, and for every new day he would turn the page :)

Deborah

I grew up with Christian parents but they weren't very religious so we never attended church or discussed religion much. The few times I went to church with friends I always heard about, the Lord, Jesus, and God. Being young and not having a religious education I always thought of these three as separate people walking around Heaven. I thought of God as the typical long gray beard, Jesus as he is usually shown in pictures, and the Lord as a kind of judge looking figure.

i used to believe that we were all just dolls in a doll house and that god was a little girl who played with us and when we were sleeping was when she was at school. sometimes i still think it makes sense

Danica

I believed that God looked down on us from a Jumbo teluscope

Anon

As a little kid I had a book called "Bad Nose Bill" and for some reason I thought that God looked like him (you can find pictures on Google image search). To this day when I picture God in human form I tend to automatically picture him with a wide-brimmed hat

Nate

I used to believe that if you pointed your finger down to the ground that you were shooting water down at the devil.

Tina

When I was a kid when it was cloudy you could sometimes see sun rays shooting out of the clouds. I thought God was standing on that cloud cuse thats what it looked like in the pictures in the bible.

Georgia

i used to believe if you did something like hit a desk on the right side three times, you would have to hit the left side three times or God would punish you. I still feel comfortable doing things evenly like that.

Brendan

i used to believe that god was on vacation, but videotaping everything that i did (to review when he got back). when things would go wrong, i would pray for "rewind".

juli

I used to trick my sister, Linda, into believing that if I pressed my bellybutton with my finger, while making a "buzzzzzz" sound, that I turned into the Devil. This tactic scared her stiff for about 10 years. I got an uninhibited, crazed look on my face and probably bared my teeth. I never laughed while I was doing it so she never really knew I was kidding. I only did it spur of the moment and when the two of us were alone. I'm a year and a half younger than her and felt amply justified in doing this as sometimes she had the audacity to call me a yellow-bellied-sap-sucker.

Patti

I used to believe that the God himself looked down at us when the sun shines trough the clouds and make those light lines from the sky..

marion

I use to believe that God controlled everyone with remote controls. LOLOL

HILLARY

My grandmother convinced all of her granddaughters that "when a lady whistles, the Virgin Mary cries".

When I was little I believed my guardian angles needed to rest and always saved room for them to sit down beside me.
