The best story from this weekend
was when 3yrold Marcela mentioned something about God. To which
6yrold Carlos very sarcastically retorted, "Who doesn't even
exist!"
His mom looked just as quizzical as
I felt. We're all basically atheists in my family, but she's
certainly not teaching it to these little ones, that's not the kind
of thing you want them going on about at school. Especially now that
Marcela's going to a -very good- Catholic school. "Carlos,"said
my sister, "you can really upset people if you say that. They're
teaching Marcela about God in school- which is great!"
"So
then how did we get here?" asks a suddenly articulate Marcela.
Carlos considers.
"Maybe
a dinosaur was laying an egg and he laid a human by mistake. Then he
laid all the humans."
...
A
dinosaur. Laid. A human.
....
And
then he laid all the humans.
So
there you have a truncated version of human evolution by Carlos Rios
Klaus, who is way too logical to believe in God.
A
dinosaur. Laid. A human.
