Yeah well I'm pretty sure they will get plenty of "scientific reasoning" at school then. But I think if you truly teach kids how to critically think then they will come to the truth naturally. But I suspect critical thinking to you is...well holding the exact same beliefs as you. Of course if you begin with the premise that your views are correct I suppose that you will have no trouble getting your kids to think "critically". Wink
My views certainly have a higher likely-hood of being correct than Christianity, IMO. I don't care if they think there might be a god, just so long as they don't get all religious and illogical on me. Because if they do, then I will have to ask them for valid historical proof of the characters of Moses, Abraham, Adam, Eve, Cain and Abel even existing. This is in addition to a valid outside source that gives testimony to Jesus rising from the dead
