If it was his own deepest childhood fear they accidentally (?) tapped into, no wonder.
I mean, the impression I get is that it went thusly:
*Tiny terror FW beats up future G2, mouths back at M. Rebeur*
R: Good lord, that kid is a handful. How to deal? I know! Predestination! Now, your highness, little boys who are naughty just prove they weren't chosen by God and will go to hell. Let me tell you all about hell. *uses 1700 years of imagery to tap into*
FW *after a lot of nightmares*: That's awful. Screw you, and predestination, and anything French! That all sucks. In MY state, we're going to be good Christians without any of that. MY kids aren't going to learn anything about it.
Posterity: No, your kids are going to afraid of you instead.
