Which is why I fully acknowledged the hypocrisy in whatever backlash we're assuming. I think from a Christian perspective, I could see the excuse, they'd be helping to establish a good objective moral standard in their young, whether God exists or not. The funny thing I see is that while the Cristian is trying to guide a youth towards an objective standard, the atheist would be helping youth define their personal moral standard. I think both of which are valuable. I think I'm starting to detract from the thread and perhaps that's a discussion for another time and place.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
