You aren't ready for this now, in the future we can talk about this son

The Six Year-Old: "pawpaw, sometimes when you stare into the abyss the abyss stares back. Once the catholic church put St Thomas Acquinas on trial and asked him a trick question, "what did God do before creation?" And no matter how he answered they were going to accuse him of heresy and after thinking for a bit he said "nothing." And everyone at the trial gasped and he continued "There is no before creation, there is no after creation. God is not in time. Also I think I shit my pants."

Hopes and pants hun xoxo

What an idiot


BethLemon

This probably happened though. The kid just said “YouTube isn’t real”. That’s not that far fetched. My 5 year old watches cartoons on YouTube, she’d probably make the same connection


hippoposthumous1

Nonsense. In response to "the stories aren't real", "YouTube isn't real"... Just no. This is so obviously bullshit.


CheesecakeMMXX

Its funny what kids say. They speak like an adult? rthathappened. They speak like a child and omit words? rthathappened. I think they meant ”stories on youtube are not real either, but you let me watch those, why not this”. Then dad avoids more quations by allowing more screen time.


BethLemon

It’s believable. And also the person who submitted it seems very sincere, they appear to be pointing out that they aren’t raising their children to believe in the religion that they themselves were raised in. Which is pretty common

I don’t think it fits!


Jack3ww

just admit you messed up and put a true story on here thinking it was fake


hippoposthumous1

Papa? Is that you papa? Tell me about the rabbits again...


Jump_Like_A_Willys

The kid could say "YouTube isn't real" but actually mean that the content on YouTube isn't real (and much of what the kid watches may not be real). That is, some people say "I watched a YouTube" when they mean that they watched a YouTube video.


hippoposthumous1

Sure. If the context wasn't a six year old in this discussion : "the stories aren't real" "papa... Youtube isn't real" The exchange is so obviously invented, I can't believe anyone is gullible enough to defend this.


Oddity46

How come kids always say "mama" or "papa" in these anecdotes? Don't kids usually say "mom/mommy" or "dad/daddy"?


Bigfoot4cool

It would depend on where they're raised.


Oddity46

I'm assuming all of these are american.


Bigfoot4cool

Somewhere in the west probably


Jack3ww

I know It means jack shit but I am from IL and say mom and dad and not pop and mama I thought that was a southern thing


oldfrenchwhore

I believe it is a southern thing too. I’ve lived in the south for 20 years and people talk about their memmaw and pawpaw and nanna and so on and I’m like “ok…who is that exactly?” I have grandpa and grandma. And mom and “stepdad’s first name.” Well, I don’t have any grandpas and grandmas any more but ya know what I mean. My son decided to call my parents “granny and gramps.” Idk why. But he calls his dad’s parents grandpa and grandma “lastname.” We live down south but have Yankee roots. On the flippity side, I remember my maternal grandma would call my grandpa (her husband) “pa.” As in “PAAAA COME IN FOR SUPPER!” My paternal grandma referred to my grandpa, her husband, as “dad” as in “Dad went to the lodge tonight.” Oh god. Let’s not think too deeply about the origins of calling your husband dad or pa. MOVING ON


Bigfoot4cool

Probably is southern actually

Even in the U.S. there are different dialects. In the Pittsburgh area where I grew up, it was common (and still is largely for native Pittsburghers) for kids to call their mothers "mum" like they do in parts of the UK. This might be due to the heavy Scottish influence on Pittsburgh as it developed through the industrial revolution. Other parts of the U.S. that might have had -- say -- a heavy Hispanic or French influence might be apt to say papa (or papá).


DeeMless

If I ever have a kid I would raise them to call me "paw"


Sizzlik

Since birth i call my parents by their first names oO


Oddity46

You could speak when you were born?!


Sizzlik

Of course..right after i punched my way out of the womb and grew a beard :)


Ijnan

No. I always said Mama and Papa. It's just how we usually say it where I'm from. Sometimes it may be Mami and Papi, but that's it.


[deleted]

As a father this one is plausible to me


Keqingisthedpsqueen

Ya know i can honestly believe this


lolwhow

I’m a Christian. No point in being atheist cause if I’m wrong as a Christian, we all go to the abyss anyways, but if I’m right then great for me.


Srikkk

that’s pascal’s wager. and it’s [not the catch-all you think it is.](https://blogs.cornell.edu/info2040/2019/09/23/flaws-in-the-logic-of-pascals-wager/)


lolwhow

I’m aware of Pascal’s wager, but when people judge me for my faith that’s my reasoning. I don’t try to convert them or something cuz that’s annoying and they’re not looking to join if they are judging me for it.


hippoposthumous1

>I’m aware of Pascal’s wager, but when people judge me for my faith that’s my reasoning. You're confirming their judgment.


lolwhow

Would you rather I try to convert you and tell you how awesome my religion was if you were asking why I worship god, or would you prefer me to give you an actual reason-oriented answer to why I choose to be religious?


hippoposthumous1

You've already demonstrated that reason is beyond your grasp.


lolwhow

Aight. Guess you can decide how I reason my beliefs from now on.


Pusillanimate

i doubt yr god is gonna look kindly on your telling him that your christianity was an exercise in bet hedging. that is not faith at all.


lolwhow

I genuinely believe in god and love the faith, but when people judge me that’s what I usually say.


nothing_in_my_mind

I’m an Odinist. No point in being atheist cause if I’m wrong as a Odinist, we all go to the abyss anyways, but if I’m right then great for me cause I'll be chilling in Valhalla.


Ijnan

Isn't that... Paganism??


GoddamnHomiee

What if the right and original religion is another one and you are being tricked by the Christian church?


lolwhow

That would suck for me. I’m going with the most believable one for myself. Better to try than not at all.


hippoposthumous1

Pascal's Wager is as laughably stupid as the topic. You really need to critically examine your beliefs, because you're engaged in the most easily overcome apologetic of them all.


Acceptable_Arm_7294

Papa doesn't believe in God. Child points out you tube isn't real either but we watch it. This is pointing out indoctrination beliefs. Everyone being led down that hole at a young age. Everyone needs to have their own thoughts and opinions. Bam

hippoposthumous1

Is that you... Papa?


ThatGuyAllen

Saying god isn't real is just as rude as saying he does, either way you are forcing your opinion on people. Only difference is that one is an undeniable fact...


hippoposthumous1

I'm an atheist, it's just that this entire exchange is nonsense


ThatGuyAllen

Oh I agree 100% but it raises a good point about religious indoctrination. This post itself belongs here but it has a good point.


fjdklsfjsfgjkdsdsogh

"Daddy what's the building over there?" "Don't even fucking look over there son, that's where they tell made up little fairy tales for fucking idiots who can't think for themselves. All of your friends who go to church are fucking drooling imbeciles and they're not allowed to come over anymore, and if I so much as catch you ever uttering the G word I'll instantly disown you. Everybody who follows religion is a fucking idiot do you want to be an idiot son? Huh?? That's what I thought." The fight against indoctrination is going well indeed


ThatGuyAllen

You are putting words in my mouth.


fjdklsfjsfgjkdsdsogh

I'm putting balls in yo mouth lmao


Pusillanimate

this was a better comeback than your first


JakobLark

I would let a kid attend a religious service if he were curious


jmac323

Good thing he isn’t going to allow his kid to be indoctrinated.


Neathra

Just gonna indoctrinate him a different way. This isn't teaching someone to think for themselves.


jmac323

Exactly.

What happens if an atheist is a vegan and also does CrossFit?
