I heard the story of a nine year old girl who climbed up in her father’s lap one Sunday after church.  She said, “Daddy, why did God make all the leaves green?”  He thought for a moment and said, “I don’t know.”  Then she asked, “What did God do before He made the world?”  Again he said, “I don’t know.”  Then, another question: Daddy, how did Noah catch two snakes and put them in the ark?”  One more time, he said, “I don’t know.”
 
The little girl asked, “Do you mind if I ask you questions?”  He said, “Not at all.  How are you going to learn anything if you don’t ask questions?”
