Looking at the way you're representing yourself, Sir, I'm afraid I must agree with Mr. Jin English.
You are doing so good a job of it, that you don't need others to do it for you.
Do have a nice day.

I am an atheist but my children attend church with their grandparents and their aunt who are christians. I allow them to go because I am not the kind of person who expects my children to grow up to be just like me. I believe they need to have information about all different belief systems in order to make an informed decision when they are older about what they believe in. My oldest daughter attended a Jewish preschool, I was an atheist then to.
Being an atheist does not automatically make me a close minded individual, i love that my children can go to church and learn new things, and then come home and learn new things from me. There is no harm in learning. If my children grow up to be christian, I will love them just as much as I will love them if they grow up to be atheist, or catholic or any other religion.
Parents should never force their own beliefs on their children, that is the mark of a bad parent if you ask me.
And the comment did not say force your kids to go to church, it said if they don;t like it, DON"T force them.;

Why is it that persons like you call absolutely everyone an atheist in the journey that they they don't trust you? i'm a Catholic and replaced into those days said as an atheist. I beleive in god. yet not in my faith. i do not position self assurance in my faith nor the different faith, because of human beings like you. I have self assurance that an atheist have a suitable to exist. i do not study about you're up-bringing. yet when you're a lot of a "Christian" why can't you appreciate their rights to exist?

What??
That is rediculous.
It is NOT our agenda to lie or to totally deny our faith just to "make somebody look bad"
I am a Christian and I am sorry but you have too much time on your hands to sit and think up something like this. You are living your life the way you want to, and that is your choice. What are you so concerned about??? This is THE INTERNET!!! Why do people get SO dillusional on here? Christians are not here to ruin your life or make you look bad. We are here to spread the message of Jesus Christ to those who haven't heard it or don't understand. If you choose accept that message, awesome! If not, than that's your choice. If there ARE Christians on here who are doing the things you say, then they have problems they need help with.

Perhaps you misread that but they were NOT going to force them into going to church, just leave the option open.
What kind of open minded individual would deny their kids all options? Doesn't sound very open minded to me, sounds more totalitarianist to me.

An open minded individual. And that doesn't make Atheists look bad at all. In fact, it makes them look rather good.

What atheist would let them until they are of age to make the choice on their own?

You may have read this wrong. The person says that the kids can go to church if they wish, but not to force them.
I'm an atheist. I let my daughter go to church when she wanted to. She was smart enough to figure out for herself that there is no God.

No, you are wrong, this person had a sincere question. Some people on here are just playing games, *like you*, and some are sincere.
