my Mom sent this to me, presumably for a laugh.  maybe i'm taking things too seriously, b/c i didn't see what was so funny.  should i think it comical that kids can't get the facts straight from these notoriously silly stories?  is it wrong for me to think that teaching the Bible to children perhaps dumbs them down?  why do i project the kids who answered these question to grow up and believe this nonsense as fact, but then question scientists when they tell them evolution is true? 

anyway, there are some dooozies in there so feel free to mock away.
