he's not talking about raising children as atheists, he wants them to be brought up to make their own choices with regards to religion when they're mature enough. i thought that i agree with, parents have no right to alter their child's though process. especially on something that is so debated as religion. bring them up with an open mind and if there grow to have a similar belief system as you, great, if not you have to respect that.

Again another massive and epic FAIL, you are the real Borgs, for you are promising

As for the rest of your post, it was just the usual blather.
Originally posted by biffo konkerNo I think there are limits. I'm not okay with the Westboro Baptist Church. But I'm not really sure what can legally be done about them either. However, I think children being raised in that environment could potentially qualify as an abusive situation.
What you say appears to be correct and seems to be common sense.But I have a few problems with your tolerant view that indoctrinating children with religious ideas is harmless.
'If you want to raise your kids Atheist or Catholic or Heathen or JW then by all means do so.'
Would you add,for instance,the Westboro Baptist church to your list?

Originally posted by Agergreally, what is it doctor? as for the statement, it should have read, lying is NOT always wrong, whether you endorse adultery, remains to be seen. That you endorse situation ethics is well known, are you denying that fact?
So my blonde haired, blue eyed, Aryan friend; you take from my challenge to the statement "lying is ALWAYS wrong - that I endorse adultery!?
Dude there's something wrong with you.
