If you notice, in my previous post, I clearly said that I don’t judge the intention behind what was written. I even don’t object your interpretation of those verses at all. What I am absolutely sure about is that if my kids were reading these materials, they will only understand what they are reading. They will never imagine that the two whores of Ezekiel 23 are in fact Samaria and Jerusalem; they will not get that private parts, lust etc refers to something else. The danger is there Kathie; a mental picture has been drawn in the minds of our little ones.
I was exposed to it as a youngster & I like to think that I turned out okay :) In fact, one of the spiritual exercises I engage in is to approach Sacred Scripture with the pure & innocent heart of a child. There's no better way to receive God's Word, if you ask me.
St Matthew 19:14 Jesus said, "Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven."
