Is a child’s insight a window to the soul of the universe? Do their bouts of bubbling brilliance also contain the structure of fully formed opinions? Can a child tell us exactly why they can calmly state their disillusionment with an unseen creator despite it’s historical worship by half a planet?
This week on Unofficial Coop&Myan venture into a territory they never before imagined. Friend of the show, Josh brings his twin six-year-old daughters, Beatrix and Zoey to discuss their disbelief in the Almighty God, the public school system’s still-thriving indoctrination of the Pledge of Allegiance and the dietary maladies of the common hard-shelled tortoise.
Were the boys able to stay on topic? Did the ultimate question of the ages finally Come to a satisfying conclusion? Did the noble attempt at offering a platform to two second graders ultimately fly off the rails? Sometimes the most important thing is to not take things too seriously and simply have a good time. Mission accomplished.
Thanks to Josh for his patience and enthusiasm and a BIG THANKS to Zoey and Beatrix for their willingness to share their thoughts and opinions and for being such awesome, fun and totally unique guests on the show. Group-hug, Couch-buddies!
