Really?

If the ideology a person is being "indoctrinated" into results in that person being as Stimbo puts it, "good and kind and loving"... I don't have a problem with that, no matter what religion they belonged to.

If Nazi indoctrination resulted in "good and kind and loving" Nazi's, no one would've had a problem with them.

The fact that you guys turn being a "loving" person into a bad thing is what's telling about the atheist "doctrine".

Yes, really, and I'm more than happy to get into why I think -and snarkily told you- that. 

Quote:Indoctrination? please, Since when is teaching a child to love their fellow man indoctrination?

Your incredulous starting point skips over what indoctrination is. I'll supply you with the definition:
  • Indoctrination: teach (a person or group) to accept set of beliefs uncritically
Notice the highlighted bits, read it twice if you need to. Teaching a small child to love through the Christian belief system, whether you think it's good or otherwise, is still indoctrination. You're still inundating a small, largely indefensible, mind with your religious hogwash and forcing them to process the world through the lens of Christianity.

That aside, let's cut the shit while we're at it; the Christian belief system cannot simply be boiled down to the golden rule -as if it isn't a staple in most belief systems religious or otherwise- and you are assuredly aware of that as a Christian yourself. I'm not speaking for you, but I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Can you get to heaven through love for your neighbor, or do you have to wholeheartedly believe in woo while you're at it?
