[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're atheists and the kids basically want a box of chocolates where they open one each day, and I say what the heck, give it to them. After years of this, I assure you they show no particular interest in Christianity. I doubt your kid will be infected either.[/quote] They may not be interested in Christianity, but they will likely end up as more generic atheists, rather than Jewish identifying as you seem to be (if you are gentile atheists, I am also not sure why you are responding to OP) What people don't seem to get is that this not necessarily about religious conversion - its not that doing an advent calendar will make her accept Jesus as her savior or something. Its a question of identity, and the way holiday celebrations create identity. [/quote]
