atheism and children

[Kingpin]

I feel I need to expound a little on my last statement. Basically what I mean is unity does not necessitate uniformity. You can believe in the core tenets of a groups beliefs and differ on less important or in other words peripheral issues. If you say you are a democrat, you have a set of social and economic principles that you feel should govern the nation, but you can certainly differ on international diplomacy, campaigns, etc. I could even go as far to say you may differ slightly in the core tenets, because I personally know some who identify as democrat but are against gay marriage for example. If you are not uniform in the core tenets does that exclude from identifying with the group? No.
