There is simply no such thing as a neutral upbringing. If it's not the parent then it's the state or the TV or uncle Jim. This is one of the main reasons why I and others are concerned about what types of movies children will digest as they develop. And I most certainly do my best to teach my kid how to think for herself. I want her to have the proper tools to get through this life as I'm sure you do for your kids. I just believe that it is also my duty to impart to her the most important tool that anyone can have in this life and that is a faith in the Great Maker. She can always reject it later if she decides to do that. I find it so staggeringly obvious that faith in God does make a difference in this life that it floors me when you say it doesn't. Do you really believe that? For instance, I've heard from people who work in hospitals some of whom are religious and some who aren't that they've seen patients with faith do far better than those who don't. You don't even need to believe God exists to acknowledge that the act of faith is a powerful thing in this life. . . . : [url=http://www.bugimus.com][img]http://www.bugimus.com/sigs/small-sig1.gif[/img][/url] : . .
