Who could have explained it better?-terter

THIS ONE IS FABULOUS!!! It was written by an 8 year old, Danny
Dutton of Chula Vista, CA, for his third grade homework assignment. The
assignment was to explain God. I just wonder if any of us could do as
well???

EXPLANATION OF GOD
"One of God's main jobs is making people. He makes them to replace
The ones that die, so there will be enough people to take care of
things on earth. He doesn't make grownups, just babies. I think because
they are smaller and easier to make. That way he doesn't have to take up
his valuable time teaching them to talk and walk. He can just leave
that to mothers and fathers."

"God's second most important job is listening to prayers... An awful
Lot of this goes on, since some people, like preachers and things,
pray at times beside bedtime. God doesn't have time to listen to
the radio or TV because of this. Because he hears everything,
there must be a terrible lot of noise in his ears, unless he has thought of
a way to turn it off."

"God sees everything and hears everything and is everywhere which
keeps Him pretty busy. So you shouldn't go wasting his time by going
over your mom and dad's head asking for something they said you
couldn't have."

"Atheists are people who don't believe in God. I don't think there
are any in Chula Vista. At least there aren't any who come to our
church."

"Jesus is God's Son. He used to do all the hard work like walking
On water and performing miracles and trying to teach the people who didn't
want to learn about God. They finally got tired of him preaching to them
and they crucified him. But he was good and kind, like his father, and he
told his father that they didn't know what they were doing and to forgive
them and God said O.K."

"His dad (God) appreciated everything that he had done and all his
hard work on earth so he told him he didn't have to go out on the road
anymore. He could stay in heaven. So he did. And now he helps his
dad out by listening to prayers and seeing things which are important for
God to take care of and which ones he can take care of himself without
having to bother God. Like a secretary, only more important."

"You can pray anytime you want and they are sure to help you
because they got it worked out so one of them is on duty all the time."

"You should always go to church on Sunday because it makes God
happy, and if there's anybody you want to make happy, it's God.
Don't skip church or do something you think will be more fun like
going to the beach. This is wrong. And besides the sun doesn't come out at
the beach until noon anyway."

"If you don't believe in God, besides being an atheist, you will
be very lonely, because your parents can't go everywhere with you, like to
camp, but God can. It is good to know He's around you when
you're scared, in the dark or when you can't swim and you get
thrown into real deep water by big kids."

"But...you shouldn't just always think of what God can do for you.
I figure God put me here and he can take me back anytime he pleases.

And...that's why I believe in God."

I received this in an e-mail and just had to share!-terter
