I agree, i'm glad I wasn't raised with that ridiculous brainwashing forced upon me.

Some people need that crutch out of fear and insecurity though, so who knows if they'll venture that way in the future. The point is it's their choice.

Why did she even need to write that? Of course it's immoral to teach your kids things that you yourself do not believe. No?

My wife is catholic, and I am without faith. I told my wife that if our kids ask questions that prompt me to answer against her faith she'll just have to deal with it.
I'm not going to lie to them.

Good luck on your divorce nikka!!! :russ:

HOW MANY AGNOSTIC MISSIONARIES HAVE KNOCKED ON YOUR DOOR, BROTHER?

@PimpHandStrong

This.

And quite frankly some views don't deserve to be respected. Why wouldn't you speak out against a worldview where child rapists are protected instead of brought to justice? Where death by stoning is an appropriate punishment for dating outside your religion? Where rape victims are blamed for their assault, rather than the rapist? Let's not become so tolerant that we tolerate intolerance.

:stopitslime:

There is a clear line between respecting someone beliefs in a higher power(s) and accepting views where rape victims are blamed for their assaults and child rapists being protected. I'm not saying for people to become hyper-tolerate of any of those views. There are many Islam and Hindu followers who don't cosign with the extremist views of both of their respected religions.

Let's be reality here and not go to the extreme. You're essentially saying that I'm telling people to fall back and accept Al Qaeda for their extremist views which is NOT the point I was attempting to make.

And no I haven't had any agnostic missionaries knock on my door. They have no reason to knock on anyones door. I get enough of the anti-God discourse online and at work anyway.
