[quote=Anonymous] Tell your DC that adults like children are full of fears and have insecurities and that they need to believe in something or someone as absurd as it may sound, something that is not based on science and logic but is a creation of fears of not knowing and traditions, in order to be able to function, to live, to strive. Tell them that you don't know what happens after a person die and you are comfortable with that, but there are a lot of adults who panic and have to have answers in order to go on. If you told your child there is no Santa Claus, then you can draw a comparison... Tell her that just like there is no one man who can visit the world in one night and give presents to everyone on the plant, there cannot be one person who is going to be able to hear everyone's prays, forgive sins etc. Tell her that religions are fairy tales for adults...Basically that is what they are.
