I think I’ve seen the same iconography in Quake with the flayed humanoids crucified to the walls on some levels.
I have questions too.
Why are you surprised some very Catholic family members gave your daughter a bracelet?
Did you previously tell those family members to please not give her any religious gifts?
Do you not know what the images represent?
What questions were you afraid your daughter was going to ask?My 5 yr old came home from school last week asking about heaven, as at least one of her friends are catholic. It’s chilling how little control over religion you have when it comes to younger kids, and it’s the age where indoctrination is most effective. It’s tough to know what to say…
-
there are tons of adults who think they have the same imaginary friend who really doesn’t exist.
-
people look for balance to the idea of their own mortality so they made up religion, then it was coopted by those looking to assume its authority.
-
friend’s parents are wrong and their dog/grandma didn’t go to heaven cause it doesn’t exist.
Obviously not those haha. Good luck though with your little one!
My 5 year old believes that unicorns exist, they are just really good at hiding in the forest. I’m not going to tell them that it’s not true.
The best I’ve been able to come up with is saying some people believe in god, some people don’t. Some people believe in ghosts, some people don’t. Everyone believes in different things, we can let them believe that without believing it ourselves.
Believing in unicorns make much more sense than believing in girafes, we just live in the weird universe
There’s a reason the ancient Romans called giraffes camel-leopards. Even they had trouble believing they existed.
Of course that’s what I do too.
But I don’t think six year olds need to know what a crucifixion is, nor do I think they should be exposed to torture and murder devices at such a young age.
Sounds like you have a healthy outlook on it. Thumbs up.
Funny you say this, because this is what I do too.
I just don’t want my kids to be exposed to torture devices and murder, which is what the crucifixion is.
Again. You’re making way too big of a deal out of it. Chill.
I’m chill. You seem to be the one here who’s not chill.
I don’t even know who you are
I’m the guy you tried to troll.

Is… that a stormtrooper up on that cross? Or was Jesus mando?
He’s also got some nice D-Cups.
At least it’s not the americanized handsome white Jesus… But yeah I wouldn’t give a child a zombie Jesus on a cross bracelet
She quickly discarded the bracelet, thankfully, and I swooped it up and it shall never be seen again.
But we were like… wow. Just… wow.

Completely off topic, but from far away that bracelet kinda looks like Commander Cody from Star Wars
Yeah, just tell the kid it’s a Clone Trooper.
I… Fucking can’t unsee this… Fuck.
Weird mandalorian bracelet but ok.
This looks like you could wear it and should “LIGHTNING BOLT” and it would actually work.
