Or so perceived wisdom would have it. But is it ACTUALLY true?
Similarly did we REALLY have joy, we had fun, flicking bogies at the sun? When the sun got too hot is it REALLY true that the bogies 'turned to snot'? I doubt it, personally.
I put it to you that whilst shepherds washed their socks by night all watching BBC, the Angel of the Lord did NOT AT ANY TIME come down and switch to ITV. The whole thing was cooked up to distract attention from the MILK SNATCHING SCANDAL.
What CHILDHOOD LIES were you told? Something about noncing Lolololol!!!!!! x 10000000!!!!!!

As I get older I am finding it harder and harder to believe what I was told about Jesus.
Specifically the story about him riding down the street on a Yamaha. Looking with adult eyes, it seems increasingly unlikely to me that he would be worshipped throughout the globe in the way that he is, had he genuinely done a skid, killed a kid, and smashed up his balls on a dustbin lid. The whole thing just doesn't ring true any more.

once sneezed right in my face and laughed. He was about 8 at the time. I told him, very calmly, and in vast and convincing biological detail, that the reason people put their hands over their mouths when they sneezed was to stop the change in pressure forcing their brains down their nose.
Apparently he had nightmares for weeks.

Haha, when I was 5, I had been eating Raisens at my cousen's house, and somepoint towards the end of the evening, he informed me that they were dead flys.
I cried and screamed so hard, that my parents had to take me home, to the point where when I see them they still talk about it 23 years later. It's OK though, my dad gave me some magic juice that turns them back into raisens; a shot of port.
