When I was a little fella...my parents told me all about the easter bunny, santa clause, and the ark.
I believed them, of course, because I wanted to...after all, who wouldn't like the idea of presents coming down the chimney, and, a little rabbit hiding candy all over the place for you to find?
Also believed in the ark, until, of course, I find a turtle a tried to keep it in the widow well of our basement.
A couple of days later, the thing was deader than a door nail.
I got to thinkin'...how the hell did a farmer catch, and keep, two of EVERY species on the planet, on some boat? And this was before I knew there were like, 5,000 species of roaches and untold, like, 15,000 different species of ants.
So, those silly little beliefs soon went by the way side...as did many, many others.
I just takes some people a little longer to stop believing fairy tales.
Yes, societal and family pressure is an influencer (I'd say probably the biggest one, actually...people LOVE to tell you how good a christian they are), but man, c'mon!
