Religion and imagination
Local pastor led the Sunday lesson for children on the theme of diligence and imagination. For example, he took the squirrel began:
- I verbally describe something and when you understand what I'm saying, then raise your hand.
All the kids nodded.
- That "something" - began to pastor - lives in trees (pause), eats nuts (pause) ...
A single hand.
- It is gray (pause) ... with a large, bushy tail (pause) ...
Children looked at each other, but no one raised hand.
- And it leaps from branch to branch (pause) ... and when sitting, puts a ring tail (pause) ...
Finally, one boy raised his hand timidly. Pastor sigh of relief and asked the boy to say that he has described them all.
- Nuuu - began uncertainly boy - I know for sure that the correct answer is "Jesus", but it was too looks like a squirrel.
