You're Getting Warmer



Some farcical conversation with my son Alex about what the Ark of the Covenant contains in the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark: Alex: It wasn't God in there. Who's the guy who lives under the ground?  The evil guy? Dad: Satan?  Alex: No . . . Dad: Beelzebub? Alex: No . . . Dad: Mephistopheles? Alex: No . . . Dad: The Lord of the Flies? Alex: No . . . Dad: Lucifer? Alex: No . . . Dad: Hades? Alex: No . . . Dad: Pluto? Alex: Yeah . . . him. Maybe it was him in that box.

    Brutus, I believe. Pluto is Mickeys dog. You will learn your Disney characters soon enough.

    I can't figure out whether your son meant he thought someone, God or "the evil guy" was actually in the box, and if so, what made him think it was a person??
