Quote:It's sorta hard to make a decision at such a delicate age, when they can believe anything without putting any rational critical thinking skills to it.

That's why I only focus on teaching them about questioning everything. It's the opposite of indoctrination. If they ask enough questions, one day they might find an answer that is right, and whatever it is will be their business. I think it's safe to say that one who truly questions everything couldn't be a part of any religion that teaches blind submission.
