So...look, I hate religious folk, that's no secret, and it's not that I want them to get run over by a bus, but...I'd rather see that than see them indoctrinate one more child. The bible is already obscene enough as it is and anyone reading it straight to a child should be institutionalized, but to actually try (and fail) to turn it into a presentable children's book is...is there a word for worse than obscene?
Someone posts saying they hate religious people and would rather see us get killed than teach our own kids about our faith, and 2 others kudos this??
I actually just kudosed it for the video, lol.

But I do believe that indoctrination of children is close to if not equal to child abuse. That goes for any ideology too. I don't think atheists should indoctrinate their children against theism either. People shouldn't teach their kids anything that isn't a verifiable fact until they're old enough to rationalize their own opinions.

That's all my parents taught me. They taught me what all the mainstream religions believe, then they taught me ancient mythologies like the Greeks, Egyptians and Norse. I couldn't tell the difference. And when the Bible was first read to me in school I thought it was similar to the Aesops fables my dad read to me only less fun and with much vaguer moral lessons. I had no idea that anyone there actually believed that stuff! I thought they were just stories.
It wasn't until 15 years later that I learned that my parents weren't even atheists. Lol. They never even told me what they believed.
