Yes, but then again no good can possibly come of them being around the highly religious types. Especially at an impressionable age. I'm thoroughly convinced that religion is hate, fear and obscene. I can't imagine consenting to let my kids be shown that.

I should ask her this. If she aims to show our kids how petty religion is then I'm ok with this. She herself is pretty sure there isn't a god so I think this may be just to please her parents...
