re: #172 HappyWarrior

I remember it sounding silly to me. The blood and body of Christ confused me and I was still believing in Santa Claus at the time too so it’s not like I was one of these kids who was a natural skeptic. For me, my belief is this is the world we know, we should try to make the best of it while we’re here and leave it for our descendants. And if there’s some sort of afterlife, great. If not, hey it was a good run. Though sometimes I think about more surreal stuff about energy being infinite and our souls constantly being reborn and that’s what life really is all about, experiencing all aspects of life throughout the years. So yeah I guess I kind of do believe in reincarnation of some kind.

There’s something about teaching a 7 year old kid to do confession, and tell the secret priest about those sins that 7 year olds do…just didn’t sit well.
