Well yeah, I use to think our politicians were wee children here in Canada, but you guys have some pretty ridiculous politicians too. I mean a Klan member and a fellow who drove his car into river and killed the woman inside.
The bible model counters the bad children with the children who are being made good. “Nobody enters the kingdom of heaven except that do so like a little child.”
It isn’t even a matter of whether it is children. It’s what KIND of children, and that in turn is based on what the children believe.
