And you kind of put your foot in it by telling her Jesus was real, not denying God's existance and then saying that he didnt come back to life tbh

Oh yeah.. I'm going to tell a 6 year old that the normal punishment for lying is crucifiction!

How did I out my foot in it? I believe there was a man called Jesus.. I don't belive in god though. I don't belive JC's mam was a virgin,I don't belive he could walk on water and I certainly don't belive he rose from the dead! It's NOT true and anybody who argues these points with me must be barking!

Umm.. where did I say "normal" punishment? I didnt. It was simply the punishment they used for Jesus, nothing normal about it, well it wouldnt be normal today. Back then crucifixition was a method of punishment, I dont see the problem with telling your daughter what used to be done.

You told her that Jesus was real, you didnt deny the existance of God, therefore it is logical for her to assume that what she heard about Jesus was correct. I dont care whether you think Christians are "barking" or not, but you cannot ignore the fact that Easter & Christmas exist because of Christianity and I'm not surprised the school discussed the origins behind the two holidays.

Look, you asked for members opinions and I gave you mine. That's fine if you dont agree with me but dont get wound up over what I say after you ask for input.

I'm not wound up at all.. not in the slightest. This thing we're doing is called deabte and is perfectly healthy and not personal in the slightest. I like you but also like the fact that we can discuss our differing opinions, hopefull without falling out..

However, I need to sleep so shall hit they hay now.

To be continued...

Ok, fair enough

Guess I was wrong, I just thought you seemed a bit pissed off
