You don't have to stop thinking and asking questions to believe in God, child. If He'd wanted a flock of eight billion sheep, He wouldn't have given us opposable thumbs, much less free will.

About This Quote

Jeff Foxworthy said, “You don't have to stop thinking and asking questions to believe in God, child. If He'd wanted a flock of eight billion sheep, He wouldn't have given us opposable thumbs, much less free will.” The point he’s making is that we do not need to rely on authority figures and feel like we cannot question our beliefs and ideas. After all, if God did want a flock of sheep, he would have given them the ability to fly, right?
