"We're a cartoon; we have to make it funny for
God." -- charichan, when she was four years
old, having already figured out the meaning of life. (It's
still the best answer I've ever heard.)
It's consistent with the "God as cosmic Author" theological model that I came up with in college, and frequent observations that God has a sense of humour, but that didn't include purpose the way this does.
I think my own eyes went kind of big when those words popped out of her mouth. She'd been asking me questions about God, and I'd been trying to answer them, and then she seemed to have decided that she'd figured out the thing that had sparked the questions, and made that pronouncement which has really been stuck in my brain ever since.
Oddly enough
