Should the teaching of religion to young minds be considered a form of child abuse?

The fairytale nonsense they are taught is, and always will be at odds with the natural world they see around them. In an already difficult world to live in, the secularity, divisiveness, misinformation and fear mongering will add trauma and confusion to a developing mind, until total submission is achieved, and a life of less than blissful ignorance follows.

Religion, particularly Christianity, does NOT have a monopoly on family values, compassion, the concept of good and bad, respect for your fellow man, and all the other positive sides of humanity etc.

Why confuse the young minds who will inherit the world we live in, so that a secular and divisive ideology can be perpetuated?

This is a threat to peace on Earth, and actively avoids/dismisses the globally uniting understanding of the sciences, which have no boundaries and is the same train of thought for all who wish to freely access it.

I have him at no. 1 just based on all the Hall of Fame fighters he beat from lightweight all the way up to heavy:

Lightweights:
Joe Gans- was vastly more experienced. Sam faced Joe and Blackburn in his first full year as a pro,

Jack Blackburn

Welter:
Joe Walcott- a draw. Also more experienced than Sam

Middle:
Stanley Ketchel- Sam actually CARRIED the great Ketchel for 6 rounds. How's that for amazing? I have the nespaper account.

Tiger Flowers- KO 2

Lightheavy:
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien- KO 5

Kid Norfolk- KO 2

Heavy:
Jack Johnson- L 20. Sam was outweighed by 29 lbs and had much less experience. Johnson only fought him once. That says something when you consider JJ faced all the other great black fighters numerous times.

Joe Jeanette- said Sam was better than Johnson

Harry Wills- said Sam was best he ever faced.

Sam McVea

George Godfrey

Don't know if Wills or Godfrey are in the HOF, but both were top at heavy .Sam had 130 KOs in 130 victories
