Some cool Parenting images:
indoctrination of the child

.
question:
which one of the images above is wrong?
.
answer:
all of them.
.
if you indoctrinate your child/ren with the tenets and beliefs of one faith, yet tell them nothing whatsoever about other existing faiths, you should be truly ashamed of yourself.
.
as a practising christian, you no doubt ‘teach’ your child/ren about the bible and your chosen [sic] ‘faith’.
do you also teach your child/ren about any of the other monotheistic faiths?
if not, then why not?
nb – the above applies to all other monotheistic [and pantheistic] faiths™.
.
one parents ‘teaching’ is another parents ‘indoctrination’.
.
but i’ll go you one further.
i care nothing whatsoever for whichever fantastical monotheism you adhere to, the indoctrination of any child is a wholly shameful and utterly abhorrent practice.
.
if you are right thinking human being, you teach your child/ren about ‘all’ monotheistic religions, or you teach them about none at all.
.
let a child be a child.
.
if you have the time [26 minutes] and the open-minded curiosity, watch dan dennett explain further:

dan dennett is far cleverer than you or i.
