Good on ya Momo. Keep thinking for 'yourself' instead of letting others do your thinking for you!

The only issue I have with religion, is that they tell others how to conduct themselves from day to day. I find that ideology reeks of control mechanisms and being the type of person who doesn't like it when people tell him what to do, I steer clear of anything revolving around those lines. I am perfectly capable of conducting 'myself' day to day thank you very much.

Namaste.

I agree, but I think some might call that oppositional defiance.lol

Until you forgive, they still own a piece of your soul. That might be the best way to become free. Believe me, I have walked through the same issues.

On another note: do you let your children make up their own minds about school and medical care? Why is this different?

[MomoDelicious]

...

Different because the reprocutions of lacking such things as medical attention and education are different.imo

Surely you would concede the right of parents to raise their children as they see fit? Am I right to assume you respect that your parents were trying to educate you about their beliefs?

[MomoDelicious]

In all seriousness I do respect parents teaching their children about their beliefs. When it comes to spirituality I believe children could be taught what their parents believe, about other beliefs in the world, and about respecting peoples choices, so that they can eventually make their own decisions on what is right for them without being opressive to others who choose differently.

Why dont you believe in Communism to help you recover - I'm confused you dont become a full member of the Catholic faith until you (willing) undergo confirmation anyway - so whats your point? or are you just a liar who was never a Catholic in the first place - From a recovering atheist

This is the problem with America today, so called parents letting children raise themselves. Children need to be taught right from wrong and need to learn that there are consequences for actions and decisions. Letting children "make up their own minds" as the author of this video states is purely detrimental to the child and eventually to society as a whole.

There is currently a HUGE surge of people returning to the Catholic church.

The "lost" look in the eyes of this momo person says it all.

Different because school and medical care are proven to exist maybe too(sometimes they exist at least)?

Now, allowing your child to carry on believing in Santa even as they get older...that can have some serious problems. Or at least it can be problematic if they were encouraged to state that belief as fact.

I'm not saying there is no God/Gods/higher power etc, I'm just saying I don't believe in religion/old books/myths.

@cashmny78 Show me this proof you claim exists, and define God for me so I know what kind of "God" you're talking about since everyone's idea of "God" is different.
