being a good pagan, i encourage my kids to learn about other religions. when my son was little he attended different youths groups of different faiths. my kids have always been taught to respect the traditions set out at these. one christian group he went to at age 6-8 sent him home with some pamplets. these were talking about how he is a sinner and jesus died for him. i couldn't believe how this brainwashing could be going on in this religion! i comforted my son by telling him he has never ever sinned and nobody died for him! that is a terrible burden to put on a child's shoulders. this is how the church gains so much control over people, by using guilt! i still encourage my kids (ages 9, 12, 15) to learn about other faiths, but i warn them about the techniques used to gain followers. comments?
