Overheard on a Train

Two hipsters on the 1631 Dyce–Aberdeen train:
Girl: “Anyone who thinks you’re born innocent is just an idiot, you just need to look into the eyes of a newborn to see there’s sin there.”
Boy: “I know, I know. Two-year-olds are especially bad — they can be mean and cruel and only care about what they want.”
Girl: “People say it’s survival instinct, but they’re wrong. It’s just pure greed. It’s all about what they want.”
Boy: “But the good thing is that you can teach them obedience. You can punish them until they realise that life is about God’s love.”
Me: [Conversation moves onto empty platitudes about doing “God’s work” amongst the “unChristian people in Africa”] >facepalm<
