Religion as an adult choice
#4
RE: Religion as an adult choice
It should be an adult choice as kids are so easily convinced of anything. My parents are still very strong christians, but if I were to ask them today, why didn't you let me choose instead of taking me to church and telling me to believe in god when I was little, they would tell me that they feared for my spirituality and they didn't want to see me wind up in hell.
To my parents, their faith is the most important thing to them.

For most of the religious, the goal is to pass their beliefs on to as many people.

I look at it as more a cultural thing. I have some atheist friends that come from a jewish background..they don't believe in the religion but they still take part in jewish tradition.
