Interesting discussion, though I have to think that the answer to the Jewish student about people in the holocaust burning in hell was no answer at all. It sounds like the leader avoided saying what he really thought and danced around the issue instead. Keep it real, I say. My response: God loves and cares for all people. Trust in God’s love. That said, I do applaud any time we are willing to struggle with teen’s over the tough questions of faith and not feel like we have to have a definitive answer every time.
