Sorry, I tripped. Guest at 12:44 was me.

Steve S., you quote me and then continue "...my own brand of unconsciously transmitted religious undoubtedly presented the Protestant view..."

"Protestant view of what? Morals? God? What did you do to present them with equally-valid views that were other than protestant, including atheism, to level up the playing field? Did you check that their teachers were transmitting it equally unconsciously and that they were giving that balance?"

You know, suddenly I don't think you deserve an answer from me. But let me say - in case you are in a more receptive mood than it appears to me - that when I said that I undoubtedly transmitted a Protestant view to my daughter I meant that as a non-Catholic I didn't, inadvertently or otherwise, mention masses, the Virgin Mary, priests or any of a number of other signature words and phrases. Neither did I yell 'Allah' when something went wrong. Nor did I bring up Wiccan holiday observances.

I did say 'God' at times.

See, I thought my reasoning was self-evident.

As for what was subliminally taught her in school, as they said in the 80s: get real.
