Thread Name: Children and religion
Subject: RE: Children and religion
Alan - I think what you are suggesting just isn't practical.I'd be interested in your views on how people should raise children and not force religion down their throats.If I go to church on Sunday - or some other day of the week - do I leave the kids at home? How old should kids be when you start to introduce these ideas to them? At 15 or 16 are they offered a few different religions of the parents choosing? Should we skip Christmas and the Easter Bunny because these kids aren't old enough to evaluate the evidence for themselves and make a critical judgement?

Just how should we expose our kids to ideas? How have you raised your kids { assuming you have some }? I'll be interested in seeing your thoughts on this.
