Only when they get to a certain age where critical thinking increases can they see through it, and then adults admit its a sham.<br /><br />But when kids are told about god and jesus, or any other religion, when they ask the same questions they are swatted back, and still being at an impressionable age, begin to wrongly accept the existence of god as fact.<br /><br />And say what you will, but for all you know, if there is a divine creator, he is just as likely to be a lepprechaun as any god you describe.<br /><br />There is no irrefutable, unambiguous evidence for the existence of god, more over, your god.

However once again the reason those above that are mention don't raise concerns are because of what you said, no evidence for them. If there was no evidence for God, then he'd raise the same stink as those others.<br />Btw, I wasn't trying to be insensitive. <br /><br />I would be interested to know what you think "force" is when these ideas are taught to children. <br /><br />Later Rabby, feenofeenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483769284197614547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4764946987133813099.post-44715399394290327442009-09-22T15:29:54.263-07:002009-09-22T15:29:54.263-07:00Feeno, just a small point that i'm sure you ha...Feeno, just a small point that i'm sure you have no choice but to accept-<br /><br />You seem to think alot of people are atheistic because they are 'mad at god'.<br /><br />I noticed the terrible analogy with the leprechauns.<br /><br />I tell you this feeno, if the majority of people in the world suddenly believed in leprechauns (albeit different leprechauns) you would soon find alot of people rallying against it.<br /><br />Especially when there is no evidence for them, and the idea starts to get forced upon children.<br /><br />I'm sure you can see where this is going.Rabhimselfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10187340353199444438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4764946987133813099.post-79673600920416506502009-09-21T20:04:48.637-07:002009-09-21T20:04:48.637-07:00Make God bless you and keep you and love you with ...Make God bless you and keep you and love you with the greatest love in the universe.<br /><br />good night feenoThesauroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13305052511095551483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4764946987133813099.post-64226709257608079562009-09-21T19:16:13.589-07:002009-09-21T19:16:13.589-07:00Mak

Jesus said himself "My kingdom is not of this world".<br />We act as if God's plans can be thwarted or helped based on who is in a particular office. They don't rejoice in Heaven when we pass "Christian" legislation, they only rejoice when some one accepts Christ. <br /><br />Dueces, feenofeenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483769284197614547noreply@blogger.com
