Re: Richard Dawkins says children need to be ‘protected’ from religion.

Just because that's the way it is, doesn't mean it's the only or necessarily the best way. But this is where the whole point of this thread comes in. If we stop questioning why we do what we do, or stop asking ourselves if there is a better way or more suitable way, then we become stuck in the status quo. We can never progress. We cannot be more. And so the cycle continues from one generation to the next.

Faith, per-se, is NOT the issue. The manner in which some find themselves a part of it, is.

There's no fishing involved, I just want to be clear in how I understand your thinking. Much the same as you do me the grace of asking how I think. I will be as honest as I can be.

I understand that I am not always the most clear in what I say or ask, but I try to put things in a relatable manner so that others can identify. I may not know all the big words and my use of language can, at times, imply the wrong message. I apologise for that.
