It may offend some people but that but that would be there choice, not my intention.
"God was angry with the earth because they didn't know him anymore.He was sorry he had created man, every single one of them, everyone aside from Noah. So God told Noah to build a huge boat called an,"
"Ark, an ark!" Tommy cut in. This was his favorite Bible story and Mrs. Louis loved telling it to him.
"Yes, that's right. So after the ark was built, God told Noah to put two of every kind of animal and bird in the ark. So Noah loaded them two by two."
"Then Noah went into the ark. It rained for a long time, maybe even a whole week," Tommy interrupted again, this time jumping up and waving his arms.
"It rained for forty days and nights," Helen Louis continued. "After it stopped raining, Noah sent a dove out of the ark. The first time it came back with nothing, but the second time it bought back a fresh olive twig, so Noah knew that land was out there. The rain dried up and Noah left the ark."
Helen smiled. The next part of the story was Tommy's favorite so she waited for him to tell it.
"And in the sky," Tommy said, standing up dramatically on his chair, "there was a rainbow, and the colors were red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and - and violet!"
"And do you know what the rainbow symbolizes?" his mother asked.
Tommy smiled from ear to ear, and he bellowed out his answer: "Gays!"
Helen sat back in her chair. She had not expected this answer. She looked at her son; his face was so innocent. Where had he heard about gays? And their rainbow?
