Nothing wrong with …
Nothing wrong with people having faith. Just all faiths shouldn’t be forceful on anyone. As for kids, I see nothing wrong with children learning about a faith, but being pressured or forced into rituals, commitments, etc… that they don’t agree with, is forcing the kid to lie. Every kid who was forced to take confirmation is lying to the church. They don’t want to be a Catholic,Lutheran, etc…I think this is what most people disagree with. Why force? If they don’t believe thats their choice.

I’m not a christian and even I know that old testament stuff isn’t relevant today. They don’t make sacrifices anymore, either, as far as I know.

I was never forced …
I was never forced to go to church, and I was lucky enough that my mom never forced religion on me. When I said, “Fuck it.” That was it, and my mom wasn’t happy, but she listened to my feelings and thoughts.

Through high school, I went to church MANY times, willingly. I am agnostic, and a lot of the time probably atheist, but I love to learn about it all. It’s an interesting story whether you believe in it or not. Probably because i wasn’t forced to be interested.

I have to go to church. It isn’t to bad, but it bugs me when I feel awful and I still have to go.

I’m so with you. …
I’m so with you. It’s not like going to church is going to hurt a kid. It’s not traumatic, and they might even make friends with kids whom they wouldn’t have met otherwise. And Christianity has some good lessons in there too, about you know like loving your neighbor and being honest and all that.

Well if you don’t …
Well if you don’t believe in the god, then I think it’s not good that the parents force you to go.
