Paula:
I don't think it was a very in-depth hour-long conversion process. He was, after all, only 8 years old. I think it was more of a gut reaction, and he knew instantly.
You can watch him talk about it here (it is near the end of the clip):

Bruno, it was published in the magazine called Best Life. Going by how they spelled the word "laborer" (not labourer) I'm assuming it's an American mag.

Ricky Gervais: my hero!
Seriously, his comedy changed my life. The guy is a genius, a brilliant, down-to-earth, hilarious genius.
He was on The Hour last night (Canadian show) and he told this exact same story.

RD at a seance to tap into his inner Chakras? Priceless. Excellent documentary... I can't wait for the backlash against it!

The book Blasphemy by Dershowitz is great... just like all his other books.
7. Could these books be part of the problem?

However, keep in mind that there is A Complete Idiot's Guide to Evolution, as well as Evolution For Dummies.
The above is funny and all, but take it with a grain of salt...

There is a marker,... No one sees it cause the sand
Has covered over,... All the messages it kept
Misunderstanding,... What original truth was
And out expanding,... In a faith, but not in love
What went wrong?
Walking tightrope high,... Over moral ground
Seeing visions of,............. Falling up somehow
Do come down
With the living, Let,..... What is living love
So unforgiving, yet,.... Needing forgiveness first
God, what do you say?
Those undecided,........ Needn't have faith to be free
And those misguided, There was a plan for them to be
Now you got both sides Claiming "killing in Gods name"
But God is nowhere,..... To be found, conveniently
What goes on?
Walking tightrope high,... Over moral ground
Seeing visions of,............. Before you burn them down
Do come round
With a living, let,...... What is living love
So unforgiving, yet... Needing forgiveness first
God, what do you say? What do you say?
There is a sickness,...... A sickness coming over me
Like watching freedom,. Being sucked straight out to sea
And the solution?,........ Well, from me far would let it be
But the delusion,.......... Is feeling dangerous to me
What goes wrong?
Walking tightrope high,... Over moral ground
Seeing visions of,............. Falling up somehow
Do come down
With a living, let,...... What is living love
So unforgiving, yet... Needing forgiveness first
God, what do you say? What do you say?
Calling out,......... Calling out.
Calling out,......... I'm calling you out.

The "secularist agenda" only supports groups ending in "ism"? Hmmm, sort of like: Catholicism, Baptism, Adventism, Anglicanism, Protestantism, and fundamentalism? Ha.
