No one — of any age — can convincingly answer any of the "big" questions: Is there really a God? What happens when you die? Why do good people suffer? Who made the world? No one really knows. So what is left to teach? Only increasingly clever ways of asking the questions, posing the problems, surprising the imagination, awakening the soul. And those are things which adults and children can teach one another.
This spirituality business is not about answers, but about ways of asking about the meaning of life and creation. A "bad" question slams the door but a "good" question just gets you to wondering and the wondering is wonderful.
