So, you tell me you're 100% certain about what I'm going to do with my kids, but I shouldn't assume what you'd do? Hypocrasy much? Should we now talk about the hypocrasy of humanists? Let's start with that comment right there. Let's move on to the pedestal you put yourself on every time there is a discussion about religion on this board with you being way up high, and anything religious living with the worms. You really, really, really need to look in a damn mirror before you start throwing **** around. I'm on a pedestal for DEFENDING Christianity? It's called a discussion. I'm not spouting off saying Christianity is the only way, and humanists are ****. That's you.
I don't ASSUME to know what ALL Christians say in their homes, I can only base my assumption that SOME would be willing to openly discuss other options because that's the kind of house I grew up in. And that's what I said. SOME. You should learn that word. You seem to have issues lumping ALL Christians in together when I am 100% positive you have not been in the home of every Christian in the world to know what we all discuss.

Oh Flygirl...you get so hot under the collar....and still say absolutety nothing!
As Ive said over a hundred times now...so pay attention...I was raised to be a righteous and religious young man in a very religious family. I also dabbled in other religions along the way. I have as much knowledge and probably more than you do when it comes to Christians or others and what they would say/teach their kids when it comes to Atheism. As a matter of fact I never once heard in
MY life, and never heard from any relative, friend or other I have talked to over the years, of a Christian family espousing the benefits of Atheism. Your pedestal Ms Fly is to assume I dont care about Christians as people and simply attack anything I say because I have a 180 degree philosophically different view than you do when it comes to religion. At least thats what you want to let me think.
My kids are well adjusted and happy, and I know you can attest to meeting one of them, and appeared to enjoy his company. The same son you met considers himself a Deist right now, and I certainly do not try to interfere with his choices. Young people tend to look behind many doors for answers that are generally right before their eyes in the first place. He will find the answer he chooses to live by...as will my other children.
Take my comments as you wish...if you consider it insulting then so be it...I could really give a ****e what you or any others think about my philosophy. However, when discussing something I think is relevant, I will chime in...as you do, as it is my right to do so. If you dont like it...well you know.
BTW...please when you are attributing something I have said, like the worms comment above, provide proof of your comment because otherwise it just shows YOUR inability to be open to others viewpoints without reason or hostility.
