Great questions of our time

[Blandmum]

'Mummy?'

'yes, dear'

'You know when theyr put the big baby Jesus on the cross.'

'Er , yes.'

'Did they use glue?'

From ds aged 5!

DD asked earlier why some babies are christened (shes not) how do I explain about things like this when we are not religious, yet I want her to know about the fact that some are? She is five.

classic!

I'm tempted to recommend a non-committal 'not sure dear, what do you think?'

Don't think it's a good idea to launch into the whole 'crucifixion is a slow and agonisingly painful death' sermon.
