I thought If I did good things then I would become pregnant like the blessed virgin Mary!

I was constantly praying and said stuff like dear God I'm not as good as it seems ! :D

You'll have trouble believing this one, but when my older sister hung out her washing I was surprised to see a bra. I said to her, "I thought only film stars had those."

(I had absolutely no idea about the shape of the female body and equated the bra with the women I'd seen in musicals. I didn't even know that THEY had breasts -- just wore clothing that looked kind of lumpy.)

Fortunately I've worked it out since then. Thank goodness!

How long did it take for you to recover from your sister's response?

Well, I can remember being nonplussed. It probably still took a while to work out what she was talking about, though.

I thought that since people went to heaven after dying that I should just kill myself and go to heaven immediately instead of waiting here until I died of old age and had accumulated a lot of sin.  I also wondered why other people weren't  just killing themselves in great masses for the same reason and this made me think that other people didn't believe heaven existed so I doubted my religion.  Yup.  I was kind of a philosophical idiot as a kid.

Many things :) , some people here have superstitious beliefs , people would smash coconut on their heads and pray God, if blood comes means then it is a bad sign i thought it as absolute ridiculous .

Another one is killing innocent animals for god ,it gave me so much pain , and i even shouted but it was of no use .

Another one is believing human god , these are the utter ridiculous things i have experienced

I thought hot water bottles had some magical property which made them warm, I didn't know you had to actually put hot water in them xD

I thought snapdragons could bite!  I think my grandma may have instilled that thought to keep me from picking all of them like I did the forget me nots :)

I thought mountains had to be pointy on top and that I could make a seesaw using the pointy top of the mountain. I also had the classic problem of thinking spaghetti was busketti.
