Re: The existence of God
Some people say that if God did create heaven, earth and everything, he must have given up on it as a bad idea and just sodded off.

According to Christianity, the Devil was an angel named Lucifer but committed the sin of vanity so God cast him into (and therefore creating) Hell.

Re: The existence of God
If your daughter enjoys it, Russ, then there's no harm at all. but to put something on a child that they have no choice over I think is out of order - like catholocism (in my view). labelling every child a sinner before they have had time to do anything wrong... I mean, come on... how to scare the crap out of a child before they even have a good understanding of anything! that's infair....

Re: The existence of God
Youngsters are more susceptible to brain washing before they can make their own decision if god exists.
IF a child was put on an island with no outside contact. Would they believe in God? No ... they wouldn't have a clue religion even existed!

Re: The existence of God
Well I'm not brainwashing. My daughter believes in the existence of God, if she wants to walk away when she'd old enough that's up to her.

I think it's ok for a child to learn the story of God and everything to go with it, but as I think Bender is saying it's not ok to learn the child to believe that it's true, and even in extreme cases (brainwash/program) the child into living the story in the way of how some think it is said you have to live.
