Not at all - I just don't want to see people who post images such as the ones you've posted - or the nice folks that are responsible for TDO - murdered.

I think Sunday School should be the place to teach religion, having said that the history surrounding religion should surely be included in the curriculum at schools. I don't believe there should be faith schools because it seems to me one way of segregating children and pointing out the difference. They say ignorance is bliss and I think this is one of the occasions that that particular statement is true, when we don't know the religious beliefs of a person we are less likely to judge them based on that belief and more likely to befriend them before we decide if we like them and want them part of our life.

I don't think anyone should be taught religion. I think if someone develops an interest in religion they should be allowed to learn about it. And if they want to have some sort of faith based or spiritual belief, then that's their choice.

However, teaching religion to impressionable young children and forcing them to pray to some supernatural being, is nothing short of brainwashing, and that's child abuse, whichever way you want to cut it.

And how do you come by that little nugget Sussex? You do realise, that I am talking about teaching children by way of the educational curriculum and Science as apposed to faith and believing in supernatural beings?

Tell me Sussex, do you have faith in fairies at the bottom of the garden or an omnipotent being, in the sky, which is it? Oh and btw, where did you get your information?

How many practicing people of faith do you know?

How do you develop an interest in something if you're not introduced to it? We could potentially have lots of children celebrating Christmas but not knowing why, oh the joy of not having to have the expense of Christmas every year

Can you imagine any of these religious types allowing their children to subject their religion to scientific inquiry?

So you don't see hacking peoples heads off as enough of an introduction to religion? What do you suggest, throwing people to the Lions just to wet a youngster's appetite?

I think you are wrong to equate fairies at the bottom of the garden with people's religious beliefs.

All the people that I come across, who have serious religious beliefs, are good and honest people.

They are not nutters, just good people.

I think you are wrong to equate fairies at the bottom of the garden with people's religious beliefs.

There are approx seven billion people on this planet, what % of them are activity cutting people's head off?

You must live in a bubble of your own.

I know plenty of what some would say are 'bible bashers', and none of them are as stupid to not let them study science.

You are painting everything as black and white, you are either a religious nutter or an atheistic nutter.

The real world ain't like that.
