Uncertain?

Overheard in the Office posts reader submissions of amusing overheard conversations that they think are outragious, stupid, or just plain weird. This is one that was posted today:

He Has Those Shifty Eyes

Teacher: "Uncertain." What does "uncertain" mean?
7-Year-Old boy: Like you're not sure about it?
Teacher: Good! What's an example of something you're uncertain about?
7-Year-Old boy, after thinking for a moment: God.

Notice the title, maybe they don't know what uncertain means themselves, and associate it with wariness. Anyway, I don't think they really get what the kid said. To me this is a very deep, thoughtful answer for a 7-year old to come up with. Who isn't unsure of God at some point?

The fact that a 7-year old said that really struck me, so I thought I'd share.
