    I went to a catholic school for elementary and were asked to draw a picture of our beat friends, I had just moved schools so I didnt have anyone yet. So I "drew" god and didnt put anything on the page, lol. They gave me 0 for it, but everyone's drawing had to go up for that week. This wasnt a reddit style atheist thing, I was into it but I also attended sermons and shit by a guy who said he thought the depictions of God as a white bearded dude was bad and that Jesus was probably black.

      I remember drawing Jesus as black in the first grade but I didn't have any brown or black coloring pencils so I just used all the pencils together to make the color darker. It was kind of a mess so the teacher didn't approve. I don't think it was a racist thing or anything though, it looked horrible.

      I remember getting in trouble for accidentally pressing the play button on a paused DVD while my class was practicing our first communion (which was a really weird thing to practice for, all we did was sit in church and eat bread)

        Yeah you'd think that, but when it transubstantiates into human flesh when you do it for realsies you'll learn otherwise.
