I AM totally against indoctrination of innocent Children. That is why I AM teaching my Children how to be good Christians. I AM teaching them reason and rational thought about the truth, that Jesus is the Son of God and that He is the only way.

Signed, A Good Parent.

You want to complain about indoctrination? Why don't you look up how the "Palestinians" are using Mickey Mouse (whom they call "Farfur") to indoctrinate children there to become terrorists.
As for Christians teaching their children about GOD , that is our job. You raise your children and we will raise ours. Teaching children about The loving GOD and HIS plans for us is not in any way harming their ability to reason or have rational thought. Teaching them that there is nothing greater that themselves is what warps them!!!

every one agrees in teaching children. but if you don't agree with what I'm teaching then it is indoctrination. I say that our schools are trying to indoctrinate our children when It comes to homosexuality, abortion, and every other items liberals stand for.Do we allow reason/rational thought when it comes to math or spelling? no we teach that there is one right and many wrongs. the same holds true for teach morality.

Why do you assume that religion is anti-rational or anti-reason? If you believe that, you should probably study up on "reason." And what, exactly, is indoctrination? Do you honestly think that people are so weak-minded that they can't make their own choices once they are old enough?

I don't know if you keep up with the latest news, but anything that we are doing with young children in no way compares to this:

Because schools won't allow it.

TRY telling a teacher there is NOTHING WRONG WITH COMMUNISM in America and see what a reaction you get!

It's relativism rearing its nasty little head in the world.
