Interpreting the world

A conversation on our way to music class- (Gavin noticed a man smoking while sitting on a bench)

G-Mommy, why is that man smoking?
Me- I don't know, but it's bad for him.
E- You should only smoke if it's really cold outside.
Me- Well, you should never smoke. It's bad for you, and it doesn't have anything to do with warming a person up.
G-Why did God even invent smoking?
E- Why did God invent fire?
Me- Well, fire is good for many reasons.
G- The sun is made of fire and gases. How does the sun stay up in the sky anyway?
E- I know! It stays up there with a giant string.
