The Innocence of a Child
December 7, 2011 at 11:30 pm
Hey all,
Here is the my latest blog. I deal with basic ethical and moral issues on imposing religion onto children and why atheists are considered amoral of not teaching it but when we get down to brass tacks and take a good look at the scriptures, there is no moral or ethical leg to stand on...

Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. -Steven Weinberg-

I think that forcing religion on children is child abuse. They are too young to understand or think critically. As Richard Dawkins says, there are no Christian/Jewish/Muslim children, only children of Christians/Jews/Muslims.

Great blog, BTW. Smile
That will never hold up in court...
