Viernes, 27 de mayo de 2011. La fe en el mono. Mamá, ¿quién creó a los animales? Algunos niños de mi clase dicen que fue Dios. ¿Quién es Dios? Para algunos padres alejados de la fe. Enfrentarse a esta pregunta plantea serias dificultades. Introducirse en el mundo de la evolución humana. Para convencer a un niño requiere mucha mano izquierda. ‘Venimos del mono’ es algo obvio para muchos, pero suena raro a oídos de una personita que ni siquiera sabe lo que son los genes. Que se basa en. A los niños con arg...
