THIS PURPORTEDLY COMES FROM A CATHOLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEST. THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS ABOUT THE BIBLE WERE WRITTEN BY CHILDREN. THEY HAVE NOT BEEN RETOUCHED OR CORRECTED.

Good morning, Judy. These are so darned cute! You're right though, some don't sound as though they were created by little ones. Very cute though!
Wow that Solomon and his 700 porcupines!
Some of them do sound a bit older than elementary students Judy.
I could not comment before Judy, but thought I would have another try before going to bed, and blogger seems to have got over another of his tantrums at last.
Mount Cyanide, indeed!
Ha! the 700 porcupines caught my eye too. these are so cute.
Don't kids say just the grandest things, so funny and at times so true.
My ex-husband certainly practiced #10 faithfully for a year before the divorce.
10. THE SEVENTH COMMANDMENT IS THOU SHALT NOT ADMIT ADULTERY
Thou shalt not ADMIT adultery.... funny.
Too funny!
Those UNSYMPATHETIC GENITALS will gettcha every time.
I love these! Thanks for the smile.
When I was teaching second grade one of my favorite students when saying the Pledge of Allegiance in the morning said, "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. One NAKED INDIVIDUAL,under God with liberty, and justice for all."
There have been so many times when politically speaking, I have felt like one naked individual that I can't help thinking the kid had a good point.
At 55, you would think I'd be entitled to an immaculate contraption already but , no such luck. But then, I'm a lot like Lot's wife- during the day I make bread with no ingredients and at night I'm a real (sweaty) ball of fire. Uh! Biblical!
Heheh, funny!
Oh my, this reminds me of hearing about Art Linkletter's "Kids say the Darndest things" from relatives much older than me. Great post.
Major LOLOL!
My kids went to Catholic school - I believe it.
I used to think God was Lord and Mother Nature was his wife!
I love these. And I enjoyed your tender story about your friend today. From Michele, but it was my second visit of the day...
