Letting your offspring go their own way is the whole damn point of being a parent! As many of you know, my Forever Princess Sam and I never got the chance to be parents; nevertheless, even I know how to raise a child and clearly far better than anyone who espouses the parental opinions as Drich has done.
Incidentally, it's been four pages now and while I welcome and enjoy the discussions we've been having, the only theistic opinion on my original question made no attempt to connect the violation of free will with the divine revelation that supposedly converts a person to the religion relevant to that person's societal upbringing. I'm starting to wonder why.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
