Lucy commented: " I have NEVER known a teacher to be stupid enough to
make this type of comment to a child. "
It's probably a good thing never to say "never." < G >
Gagarian (SP?) said just about that after his first trip into space, and
he said it to the world, including children. I was not much past
childhood then and I remember being somewhat impressed by his remark.
Although, not being a Christian at the time I did not think it of much
significance.
I remember an English teacher in 9th grade using much the same sort of
logic on a bunch of us naive students. He was a "wise"man and I think it
was he who first persuaded me that the faith of my fathers might be
bogus. To this day I remember his arguments and it was 16 years before I
finally understood how puerile they were.
