I used to believe that jeruselem was in florida (where I live) and Jesus was buried somewhere in his tomb and I wanted to find him, well even if it was here his body would've desinagrated, but ya'know

When I was young I used to think that there was a big man who lived in the sky listening to my most personal thoughts and feelings, who cared deeply about my hopes and fears, and who would listen to my requests, granting only those which were good for me.

I used to believe that there's an invisible man in the sky that would grant me any wish if I just knelt down and talked to him.

I thought a manger was the entire nativity scene with the stable, baby Jesus, Mary, the wise men and all. We had a little scene like that under our Christmas tree every year. When I was in my 30's, I found out a manger was only a feed trough, but baby Jesus did sleep in one.

When I was really little, there was this show on Nickelodeon. It was a game show that had a few teams (I can remember the Barracudas right away) and they had to go through a maze or something...I don't remember, I was only 5.

Anyway, there was this HUGE stone face guy. Now whenever I think of God I think of that huge stone thing.

I was about 5; I had to go to church (my dad was a CofE vicar at the time) and I had this belief I knew God's real name.

It was 'Peter'

How did I know this? Well in church people chanted the words "Thanks Peter God" rather a lot...

i used to belive that part of my sidewalk was god because someone wrote the word 'god' in it when it was still wet

When I was younger I thought that red and black were the colors of the devil. I was 'safe' from the devil as long as I kept my red and black markers and crayons seperated. My parents went to Texas Tech tho-- where their colors are red and black--and oddly enough I was never scared or worried about the devil when I was at a Tech game or wearing one of the shirts :)

I used to think everything was made by god.

I always thought God looked kind of like this really stern man with dark hair. One day I saw a similar looking guy in my CCD (Catholic Sunday School) book next to a question saying to circle the one who was God (they had the guy up in the clouds with the flowing white beard, but I didn't think THAT was him) and I got it wrong.

Another thing: I was about two when I asked my nana where babies came from, and she told me they came from God. Until I actually asked my mother a few years later, I thought babies just kind of dropped out of the sky in little bassinettes and landed on your doorstep. I think I asked my mum why the babies didn't get hurt when they fell out of the sky and that was when she got me the "So That's How I Was Born" book.

I remember a sermon in which the minister said: "When I was a little boy, sometimes I would wake up and find the world so quiet and still, I thought that maybe the Second Coming of Christ had been and gone, and left me behind. So I would sneak into my parents' room, and see if they were still there. If they were, I knew it was all right. I never looked into my sisters' room, because I thought it would be touch and go with them."
As I said to him after church, "You must have had a terrible conscience."

when i was younger, mi father used to work late and had to spend a lot of time away from home. mi mother and i would go to church without him and i learnt that God was my father. so one day when my dad came home for saturday after work, he entered the house to find me concertrating hard on my skool work. he ruffeled my and said "isn't your hard working daddy going to get a hug?" and i replyed "no. you are not my dad! God is so there!". all i can say now is that my dad fainted from the shock of being insulted!

When I was 5, my cousins told me when it rains and the sun is shining at the same time, that meant the devil was beating up his wife

I used to picture God as wearing a robe and headdress like a Shiek.

My family was never a very religious family, but nonetheless, my mom told me about god an heaven. I somehow came to think that heaven was located in the clouds. We used to travel alot before I turned 5 and started school, but everytime I was on a plane I would search through the clouds, trying to see if I could see heaven.

I used to believe that once you turned a teenager, you then met GOD. I remember thinking to myself when we met, i would ask him to give me longer hair. Afterall GOD was a magicial man in my house, he could do anything your heart desired. I still believe that, however now i know i have to be dead for him to greet me..haha.

I used to believe God had a bag of sugar like substance and sprinkled it on Earth.

In grade school we learned about the tax collectors in Jesus' day. I used to think that the people working at the toll booths on the highway were our tax collectors.

8-9 feet tall.We are the centre not more than 6 feet, and the evil is under us not more than 2 feet.
