Adventures in Boydom

Chris had an episode of Booster Seat Wisdom tonight. Liam and Alexander got into a heated debate about GOD of all things. I think Liam is a budding atheist, which kind of sucks for me, his intensely spiritual, though nontraditional mom. Here’s how the conversation went…

Liam was quizzing Alexander on his knowledge of the origins of the earth and the universe, and was getting frustrated by Alexander’s take:

Liam: so who made the world?
Lex: God made the world.
Liam: NO! the matter in the stars cooled and made the planets!
Lex: God made the world.
Liam: NO! God can NOT just POOF and make the world in seven days!
That makes no sense.
Lex: But God made the world!
Liam: who made the universe?
Lex: God.
Liam: NO!!! God didn’t even exist! God can’t create Himself!
Lex: God made everything.
Liam: NO!!! God did NOT make everything! The stars made the planets! The Big Bang made the universe! You just believe everything that school teaches you!
Alexander, of course, could care less about Liam’s opinion. Anyway, the conversation comes to its natural conclusion as we end up at the pizza parlor and more important issues like video games appear….
