Made Up Characters We Teach Children
I dont know if this has been discussed but i thought I would bring it up to stir the pot...
Throughout many of our childhoods we were told of Santa, The Easter Bunny, The Tooth fairy, etc. And I assume ALL of us before our teens (hopefully) found out that all of these "figments of imagination" to be non-exsistant. Do you think this could hender the ability to believe in God, Jesus, etc..?
I know earlier in my teenage years I really struggled with the idea of a creator of all things because throughout my childhood I was under the impression that Santa (etc) were real.
However now in my early 20's I dont struggle as much with the whole religious idea.
Thoughts?
