A Conversation with Charlie (Age 4) About Theology
(scene: we're at a local bakery looking through a storybook of Jack & The Beanstalk. We get to the part about the guy selling Jack the beans and the guy in the illustration looks like a dwarf. I decide to use it for my ongoing "dwarf awareness campaign".)
ME: You see that man? He's a dwarf.
HIM: He is? A dwarf?
ME: I think he is.
(very long pause)
HIM: I think he's God.
So really, the dwarf appreciation thing is going well but the idea of dwarfs being just like anyone else is not working out so good.
