A question for atheists
#12
RE: A question for atheists
Quote:1. If you have/had children, how would you raise them with regards to religion and spirituality?

I'd explain religion to them and why people believe in it, but I would most definitely raise them Atheist.


Quote:2. How would you react if they wanted to explore religion?

If they were thinking of joining a religion, I'd probably bitch slap them since I would raise them with more common sense.

Quote:3. How would you react if they came to a belief in a deity or deities, and converted to a religion?

I'd be pretty pissed off since they had a choice to use their common sense or act on fear and they chose to be weak minded.

I'm worried that it'd be impossible for me to raise my children Atheist in today's world. Everywhere you go there are people preaching about BS 1000-year old fairytales and myths and I would obviously want my children to make the right choice on a decision that will affect their lives forever.
