My eldest son is in high school.
There is a band of four atheists (alright, self proclaimed non believers who probably just found out about existentialism by reading something in Wikipedia and decided it would be cool), that tries to give him a hard time.
They know he went to the March for Life. They know he comes from a big family. They know the faith means something to him. So they gather to heckle him at regular daily intervals.
The other day, as my son walked by, they jeered, "God is dead."
"No," my son responded, "That happens Friday."
Please excuse me while I pump my fist and whoop a bit.
As a side note, only three showed up to try and talk to him the next day.
Sometimes serious, sometimes funny, always trying to be warmth and light, focuses on parenting, and the unique struggles of raising a large Catholic family in the modern age. Updates on Sunday, Tuesday and Friday...and sometimes more!
