My son got this in his Halloween basket.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
Quote:“No, of course not,” Mommy answered. “There are no such things as ghosts. There are some scary things in the world—some of them are very real and some of them are just in our imaginations. But we don’t have to be afraid, no matter what. We have something much better than a scary costume—actually, it’s Someone!”
“Who’s that?” asked Emily.
“It’s Jesus,” Mommy replied. “The Bible tells us that ‘God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son [Jesus], that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life’ (John 3:16). Jesus died on the cross to take the punishment for our sins—all the bad things we say and do. But after three days in the grave Jesus came back to life… and later returned to heaven.”

Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
