Will you raise your children as Atheists?
#27
RE: Will you raise your children as Atheists?
I'll raise them with an emphasis on critical thinking and curiosity, and as much science as I can get away with before they start hating me Smile. If they then decide to become religious, I'll have something to tease them about Big Grin
Raising them explicitely atheist sounds like a bad idea, it kind of goes counter all the other more important ideals.

If you are to have children, will you raise them as an Atheist? I think If I have children, I'm not going to raise them with the bullshit of Christianity, but I'm not going to force Atheism on my child, I'll teach him evolution and science, but I won't tell him that some magical man in the sky created the universe, what about you?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
