She means like strict super forceful religious. As an atheist I agree with her to a degree but I wouldn't want to have a baby one day and theists be like "another child born to be raised on evil and destined to hell"
I'd rather just be happy for the teacher, having a kid is a good moment. But don't worry she's just venting as she matures she'll get less edgy. RIGHT DIE ATHEISTIN??

DA, have you asked him if he's doing a DNA paternity test?

It's not just "strict super forceful religious", I dislike the idea of religious indoctrination even if it's moderate. I don't think it's horrible when it's moderate, just not right. I just said I don't agree with that, I didn't say the kid is doomed forever or something like that.
And yes, I was birthed from religious parents, but I would still be born even if they were atheists. I was indoctrinated with religoin and I regret it.

He's an orthodox priest, he's allowed to marry. It is his kid, unless they had a donor or his wife cheated on him.

Yes you didn't say/mean that. My example was theoretical as in what a theist might say when an atheist has a baby.

SaStrike touched on this. I do hope you realize how shitty it would sound for a theist to express dismay at an atheist couple being pregnant on the grounds that they'd raise an atheist, hell bound baby. (i don't believe that btw). The man's wife is pregnant. Be happy for them and assume they'll be good parents. Hopefully with age you'll learn to have more tolerant, less bigoted views towards those who think differently from yourself.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Not agreeing with someone doesn't mean you don't tolerate them. I didn't say theist parents are horrible, my parents are theists and they're loving. I said I don't agree with the indoctrination part, not that theist parents are bad on every single level.
Also, An atheist doesn't necessary need to indoctrinate their kids to be atheists, because we are all born without a religion.

If they were atheist they may have never met and you wouldn't have even been a thought, let lone a person. I can believe you believe you were indoctrinated in religion and it may be so, what you were not taught is Christianity and son there is a huge difference. Parents have the right to teach their children what they believe is best for them and i do not agree with what many children are taught but I do not condemn the parents for their decision. The results will be the results and the parents will have to live with the results they do not like as well as the results they like. Being a parent is the biggest job on the planet and the most important because it shapes the future of humanity. If you do not improve in your understanding of people please do not be a parent.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
