It's really irritating me. We're both Catholics (me not a practicing one, though) and dd attends a Catholic school.
These past few weeks, she's been going on about God and bombarding me with questions such as "Who made God?" "What was there before God?" "How can God be everywhere at the same time?"
I've answered as well as i could.
But now she's blaming God for every little thing. And it's these ones I'm struggling with.
"Why can't God just make it my birthday today?"
"Why can't God make me turn into a kitten instead of being a human?"
"Why can't God make me fly?"
"Why can't God make someone else have my cough?"
Etc etc etc. God is being blamed for such things 3-5 times a day in my house.
I've explained to her this morning about the Golden Time/Friday thing that it was humans who invented the idea of days and time etc, so it's nothing to do with God. But then she spun it around that God was the one who made humans and gave them their brains to think about naming the days in the first place.
Any ideas?
