Sorry LH that was a reponse to Wesley who obviously have much interest in science.

But you are wrong to say that "It's not just a case of religious beliefs either...that's just one aspect of the matter."
This thread is specifically about the involvement of young children in organised religion.

Of course no one could object to parents teaching their children, as long as it was not harmful to them.
The point in question must be whether indoctrination of children with organised religion..full of exclusivity and hatred as it is, is harmful to the mind of an innocent child ...Ake
