Well I'm sorry but I've seen plenty of examples online which basically assert that since babies are born atheists atheism is the true position. Which is why I don't like that argument at all. Let kids grow up first before we start labeling them.

But as I said, it is their prerogative to use the argument, I just don't like it and won't use it myself.
