[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really wouldn't care, so why would I ask?  Regardless, my children play with all children of various faiths/non-faiths and backgrounds.  My children have their own faith, and I make sure that they are respectful of other faiths, because I believe that we all have our own paths to follow.  I would think no more or less of you for being atheist.

This is not a healthy mindset. My kids are taught to be rational and critical of other's claims about the nature of the world. There is no reason to respect someone who believes in an imaginary God, none. Tolerate, yes, but not respect. People can be free to follow their own path, and we are free to point out and ridicule the irrational nature of their path. [/quote]

Wow. I bet you're a lot of fun to hang out with, and your kids too. I actually feel sorry for your children.[/quote]

Believe what you want if it helps you feel better about having your belief challenged openly. Ask yourself why you feel it is necessary to resort to personal attacks. For shame![/quote]

Oh, please.

I have no problem with my "beliefs" (aka the Truth) being challenged openly, because I know that I am correct. God's word is Truth. Jesus Christ is Truth. I don't have to defend Him; He has done that for us.

And you call this a "personal attack?" Why? Because I (and at least one other PP) noted how downright rude you appear to be, because you teach your children to "point out and ridicule" other people? Yes, I do feel sorry for your kids, but I pray that in God's divine way, He will reach them, despite the falsehoods you are trying to brainwash them with. [/quote]

You have reading comprehension problems. As written "...and critical of other's claims about the nature of the world." very obviously draws on the definition of "critical" that is "involving the objective analysis and evaluation of an issue in order to form a judgement."  as opposed to "expressing adverse or disapproving comments or judgments."

I also don't teach my kids to point out and ridicule other people. That's just more reading comprehension problems on your part.

Not really that surprising coming from someone who thinks an ancient book is "the Truth".
