What to teach my child?

[Exian]

I have a hypothesis (wild guess) about our generation of atheists, and perhaps the following few.

This era of atheists will be bookmarked by the emergence of a generation of atheists that never had to deconvert. They will never have had to struggle against indoctrination, or break free from mental chains, padlocked by well-meaning family and reinforced with church. They won't ever think to take pride in their atheism. They won't feel the need to seek out and bond with a minority of strangers on the Internet who share a common view of the "supernatural" and, more importantly, the natural. The next era of atheists will call themselves musicians, scientists, machine repairmen, grandparents, or whatever else they desire to be. But theism won't even register.

I also predict an "old atheist revival movement" started by some hip college students of history who'll look back at our years and see what we were up against, and they'll see we fought. They'll be jealous of their rock star, rebel grandparents.

Anyhow, I say we start to raise that generation now. Childhoods built of facts, reason, and honest observation.
