Chapter One
God Created the World
“Everything?”asked the child;
the Big Bang, suddenly,
vanished into
the Black Hole in my head.
Chapter Two
God Protects Us
“God gives us air to breathe, food to eat,
clothes to wear and houses for our shelter”
I read out to her
from her text book.
“Ma...
man is the one who makes a house
and not God, isn’t it?” asked the child.
Chapter Three
Christmas
“Mary is Jesus’ mother and Joseph his foster father,”
I reiterated the lines from her book.
“But why is Joseph his foster father?” asked the child
and I landed
at the Council of Nicaea
And then at Chalcedon
amidst Nestorius and Eutyches bewildered!
