I disagree. To that end, please accept my apology for my abrupt post. I was on my way to the movies with the missus when I read what you wrote and didn't take any time to consider where you might be coming from in making such a post. Most of us go through things and as a result occasionally say some things which do not reflect our better lights. In general it is better to give people a chance to back off of those sorts of statements gracefully. I wasn't very considerate of you in that regard and I am sorry.

I do find it beyond disturbing that the general well-being (health, self-esteem, self-understanding through sound education) of innocent children are being treated as less important by apparently senior members of this forum than your misguided emphasis on putting on a nice face for people who have never, ever played nice, have never, ever played clean, and who never, ever will do either while they are in power.
Honestly, most of this reads as a little paranoid. I take it you've had some unpleasant experience with religion. I've had some myself.
