A lesson on birds

Lee has been asking some really interesting questions. We always knew his mind worked overtime but as he gets older we are really having a hard time answering the questions in either a PC, objective or nonabrasive way.

Tonight on the way back from Choi Kwang Do he asked why birds sat on power lines. I told him I have no idea but we'd look into when we got home. And we did. It's a easy perch for landing and take off. The next question was why do they all face the same way and then why do they not get hurt. After explaining about electricity (okay I read it to him from http://how-come.net/category/animals/ it's a really neat website) his next question is why are our neighborhood lines underground. He says it wasn't very nice for the people not to give the birds a perch and maybe that's why we don't see many birds.

Church is another place that opens us up to a lot of questions like if we drink His blood every week how much blood can he have (easy enough to answer). After Jesus rose from the dead were his feet and hands broke from being nailed, why were people so ugly to Him and why are people still ugly to each other. All easy enough to answer unless you have to worry about what may come next... and we do.
