[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Read Bible stories to them if you want to teach them about the Bible, and then let them decide what they want to believe. My children are encouraged to question everything and to make their own decisions. They have heard all of the Bible stories, they know about evolution, they have been encouraged to read about every belief, no matter what it is. My oldest son and my 15 year old daughter are agnostic, and have been for a few years. [b]How and what they believe is their business, not mine[/b].  [/quote]

Up to a point, yes.  I bet you'd be pretty upset if they believed Neptune lived in the sea and that sleeping beauty was awakened by a handsome price and lived happily ever after.[/quote]

Not PP, but we read some stories from the Bible right along with Greek mythology, Egyptian mythology, etc.

But do you encourage them to "believe" some stories over others or do you approach them all as stories?[/quote]

Approach them all as "[i]some[/i] people believe" these stories. I don't encourage one way or another.
