Most kids today who are obsessed with their music texting twitter facebook and instagram as well as movies…are not mentally deep enough to have real questions on anything. I think most of them have very basic questions although they are harder to answer than theological questions.
Why don’t my parents love me?
Why do my parents abuse me?
Why are my Rabbeim and Morahs mean to me?
Why do kids make fun of me or bully me?
Why doesnt anyone show me and love and tell me I’m wonderful and a good person?
Why does the community tolerate molestation and abuse?
Why are people who are supposedly Rabbis committing acts of atrocity and getting arrested for fraud?
The list goes on but I will stop here. The point is most kids have no questions on the actual religion but rather on the way they see it being practiced today by most people and especially by people of authority who know a lot better and don’t live up to their requirements.
