[quote=Anonymous]Christianity has not made a good case for itself as a positive thing in people's lives; it is synonymous in a lot of peoples' minds with the Evangelical movement in bed with right wing politics. The focus on conservative social issues has really soured Millennials and younger on organized religion as a whole. If I want my child to be a good person who loves and respects others, I definitely don't want to bring them to church, where they're likely to absorb negative doctrine about LGBTQ rights, the role of women in public life, the souls of non-Christians, etc. Churches would do better to focus on social action work - food scarcity and homelessness initiatives (soup kitchens, hypothermia shelters, Habitat for Humanity), interfaith dialogue, etc. The fact that you're more worried about baptizing your grandchildren than the reasons why your kids don't engage with religion anymore is part of the problem.[/quote]
