I'm a (liberal) Christian - have been all my life, went to Sunday School, a Church of England secondary (ie junior high/high school), etc - and I'm confused by all that.
What hope is there for five-year-olds? o.0
Though getting killed "because he was rainbow coloured" makes about as much sense as the accusations and trial reported in the Gospels.
This reminds me of the RE lesson I taught with eight-year-olds where some were very confused about the difference between God and Santa. We were writing prayers (it was part of the syllabus) and a lot were of the "Dear God, please can I have a puppy" variety. :D The lesson came to a premature end when one boy yelled out, "It doesn't matter what you write because God isn't real anyway." lol
