The lies you were told as a child.

You know about that whole apple/watermelon seeds thing? Well, in Russia, a man had an operation (at the time, looking for a tumour) after he inhaled a seed and they found it had sprouted into a 5cm fir tree.

The usual. Easter bunny, Santa Clause and the tooth fairy.

That there was this all powerful benevolent being called god. That was a pretty big one.

Haha yeah my parents told me that too. And I believed them at first. Then I found out that Santa, the Easter Bunny, the tooth fairy, ext., were fake and realized, if I was lied to about this then they must be lying about God.

You two need to meet my good friend page 13 (and before that, page 2), where I covered the fact that my case wasn't just "lol I'm an atheist so god is a lie." but rather "lol, my parents were atheists, but lied to me about what they believed in order to please their heavily Christian parents."

It isn't a lie if the speaker believes what they say is true.
[blatant flame baiting]Then it's just mis-informed.[/blatant flame baiting]

While I'm here, I'd like to point out that I said that last year, when I was a lot more "lol at christians" than I am now (despite how "lol at christians" I still am, I used to be worse)
Since that post has a habit of being quoted, I think I might edit a little notation into it.
Something along the lines of "Hey dumbass! Look at the date."

From as young as I can remember, my mother told me to stop playing with my penis or the birds would think it was a worm and peck it off. Never stopped me though!

I had the "don't drink Sunny D (also known as sunny delight) because it will make you go orange" in reality it was just full of sugar and I was only about 7, so that much sugar would of made me go crazy hyper.

Also that was actually true up until they changed the ingredients. The ingredient that did this is called Carotene, but you had to drink a hell of a lot. Was in the newspaper at some point when I was younger.

I was told that if I keep playing video games I'll never get anywhere in life.
I'm enrolled in Stony Brook University.

[mdk31]

I was told that if I looked at the TV or computer screen for too long, my eyes would become squares. So naturally I had to find out if that was true.

It wasn't.

"If you swallow chewing gum, it'll stay in your stomach for seven years."

I've had the pleasure of being able to tell some people that that's bull faeces.

Thats not a lie:| Chewing gum is very hard to digest and it will gather a ball in your gut.

If you eat the crust of bread your hair goes curly

And i wouldnt count God and Jesus and stuff as a lie if they believed it was the truth to them.

There are aligators under your bed and if you get out of bed at night they will eat you.

for a year I would jump from my bed, to my nightstand, to my dresser, and out my bedroom door to avoid hitting the ground. At any time of day.

 

[Prince monkey]

You can't drink fizzy drinks in the morning or else your insides will rot

 

[high sandwich maker of lamuella]

Such as, "Don't pick your nose or your head will cave in."

Exaggerated, but my dad did actually anesthetize a guy who picked his nose so much he wore away the bone and his nose caved in...not a child a full grown man haha

Babies come from bellybuttons, cabbages and the washing machine.
