How do you know it is not an atheist kid?
Tue biggest and rudest kid "witnessing" to others in my kid's elememtary was a very devout and passionate atheist kid who took special pride and pleasure with seeking out Christian, Catholic and Jewish kids to mock and also worked very hard to "witness" to and convert any non atheist kids to his belief system.
The Christian, Catholic, Jewish, Muslim and Hindu kids? Overall they were very respectful of the wealth of beliefs in their class.
Can't say the same of the evangelical atheist kid and his two main followers.
The kid's parents probably read Richard Dawkins' books to him when he was younger and now he thinks he knows it all.

You'd be as much of a bully as the kid doing the witnessing. Seriously, you "nones" need to chill out.

I have a vivid memory of being told I was going to go to hell for being Jewish when I was a 5th grader in Virginia ( albeit not in Northern Virginia) when I complain to the teacher she told me that hell isn't a bad word if they're talking about a place where sinners go.

I like you.
What if the kid doing the prosteletyzing was saying something that was anti-Christian that goes against my kid's beliefs? No doubt that you would be high-fiving him, right?

What if its on a poster on a government wall? What if there is no counterpoint next to it?
As long as others are free to do the same, I don't see the issue.
