[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is there to handle? Your kid will hear lots of things from classmates in school that you may not have chosen to discuss with him. If you want to keep him in a bubble, homeschool.[/quote]

How would you feel if my child told your child that there is no God?  It’s the exact same principle. I’m sure you’d be complaining bitterly. [/quote]

This. [/quote]

What do you mean? It would be fine. Lots of people are atheist. I would also be fine if a Hindu person told my kids their religious stories and if a Muslim told theirs. Everyone is entitled to their own beliefs. It is your job to raise your child.  No one else’s. You cannot control what the kids say on the playground. If you want that controlled of an environment, you need to homeschool. If you beliefs (or non beliefs) are so shaky that one child discussing them is upsetting (or makes you bitter?), you need stronger beliefs. [/quote]

there is a difference between telling some [b]nonsense Jesus story [/b]versus saying gays will burn in hell because the Old Testament says so. Or my dc being told they are “saved” yet.   I mean if you want to fill up your kids with bible stories, I don’t care.  But if you spread your intolerant beliefs on my kid or uSe them to shame kids who are transgender, for example, i would Make a massive fuss at the school.  Most religiOus types think it’s okay to force their beliefs on people because you “can’t control kids”.  Untrue. [/quote]

Talk about intolerance.  Do you see the hypocrisy in your thinking?  For someone that doesn't want to be subject to the beliefs of others you have no problem letting some of us know your sentiments and by inference how you feel about believers.[/quote]
