How do you teach the Bible to children without “veggietalizing” (in other words censoring or kiddifing the Bible) it? Because there is some aspects of the Bible that seems hard to teach children unless they are already taught about “the birds and the bees”

Hey I had a dvd movie of that shit when I was the kid.
Need to find if it was approved by the Church.

Simply read appropriate excerpts.

You don't. Sacred Scripture wasn't something they tossed at the children to read. The old Mosaic Jews never allowed their own to read Genesis until Age 30. This is why the child Christ going to the Temple to lecture the Jews at a youthful age is recounted in Scripture.

Same way we did it before there was any such thing as veggie tales. My family had Bible study hour twice a week way back in the stone ages when there were 3 channels on television and the internet was a fever dream.

Most of the Bible is inappropriate for children.

Problem is we've became too soft to acknowledge reality and the effects of it.

Stop trying to hide the world from them and teach them about "the birds and the bees" if they ask what something means. Speak plainly and honestly. If they don't fully get it earlier, they'll get it later. Do NOT use children's Bibles or comics, or anything of that sort that makes the Bible seem like a series of odd and fun stories. DO just tell it to them as if they were an advanced theologian. They'll also get it eventually. Extrapolate about typology and symbolism, the Church, etc. People need to stop treating children like dumbasses when they are not.

Christ wasn't allowed to read it as a child?
