The scene: a cold winter's night, and a number of children are sitting round a fireplace loaded with logs. A fire keeps the room warm and cosy.
"What shall we do"? inquires a child?
"Lets make paper dolls," suggests another.
They busily make a number of paper dolls.
"What now?"
"Let's write some nice things about the dolls on the dolls."
They agree. Each child writes something on each of the dolls.
Things like:
kind
helpful
plays with us
shares her toys
loves us all
Then one of the children writes
"loves Jesus" on some of them.
and then
"What shall we do now?"
"Let's colour in the dolls with our crayons"
"Where shall we start?"
"With the ones on which "loves Jesus" is written," suggests the child who had written "loves Jesus" on some.
They proceed.
"And now what - we have coloured in the dolls with "loves Jesus?"
"We keep these dolls and throw the rest in the fire," says the child who wrote "loves Jesus" on the now to be saved dolls.
And then the fighting began. Sister against sister. Brother against brother. Brother and sister against each other.
