Does God know Batman???

Kids are amazing. They are not afraid to ask the many questions they have. As we get older we often keep our questions to ourselves, worried that our curiosity will be laughed at. I asked a bunch of year 5 kids to write down the questions they had about God and Christianity so that we could talk about them in Scripture class. Here's a few of them. Hope it reminds you of some of the burning questions you once had, or still have....

1. How were dinosaurs created when they were before man and God?
2. Why doesn't God answer?
3. Why is God 3 people or things?
4. Why did God give a baby to Mary?
5. How did God give birth to Jesus?
6. How does God talk?
7. Is he (Jesus) a miracle?
8. What does heaven look like?
9. What does hell look like?
10. Do people eat in heaven?
11. Where is heaven?
12. Where is hell?
13. Why did Jesus get hanged up?
14. What did Jesus do wrong? (for him to be killed)
15. What does God look like?
16. How did Adam and Eve make all the people? Wouldn't two children from the same family have children because they were the only ones alive then?
17. When Adam and Eve were born how did they survive or were they born adults?
18. Who are God's parents?
19. Who made up all the names of people?
20. Is it true that God made the world in 7 days?
21. Why is his name God?
22. How old is God?
23. Does God have brothers and sisters?
24. Why does Jesus wear a dress?
25. How come all the poor children are dying and God doesn't help them with anything?
26. Wouldn't everyone be healthy and clean if there was a God?
27. Did God really make everything?
28. When people die do they really go to heaven?
29. When people die and if they have been bad do they really go to heaven?
30. How do we know God is true?
31. How do we know that the bible wasn't written by someone else?
32. How come we can't climb the mountain where the ark is? In turkey.
33. How come we don't know where the garden with the ten commandments is?
34. Where do you go if you don't believe in God?
35. How do people know what God looks like?
36. How come we don't have powers?
37. Does God like chocolate?
38. Where did God live when the world wasn't created?
39. How come Jesus isn't still on earth?
40. Does God know batman?
41. Is God a mutant?
42. Are Satan and Jesus in a secret scam to take over the world at the end of time?
