the first amendment is violated by imposing religion on children because it is taking away their CHOICE ;)
and who am i to tell people how to raise their children? first of all, I work with children, and plan on having my own when i graduate. also, i am someone who has thought long and hard, likely much harder that you, about how to achieve peace and healthy global function.
please do not take that as dick-measuring. i am a thinker. but, i am sure you have your strengths as well. no doubt, in fact, in areas where i have no skill.
I don't take as "dick-measuring", but it's funny how you jump from a philosophical level to personal, oh "thinker".
A few things:
First of all, there's a lot to learn from any religion.. things like, humbleness. A trait on the opposite side of arrogance, which you displayed by your answer.

I happpened to work with kids as well, more teenagers, but eventually there were "kids" as well.
Now, let's see about choice and freedom here - yes, there are many cases in which a rigid and strict religious frame damaged the child. Yet, there are many other cases in which a kid could benefit from the wisdom in the scriptures. So it's absolutely moronic to isolate monotheist religions as "a root of all evil".
Besides, my main arguement stands valid -you have no right to decide in these matters, my friend.
No, your argument does not stand. Pushing religion on a child violates the first amendment. Learn to read pls, kthx
Why be humble? Thoughts like mine have gone unheeded and unheard for too long. I have a thought process that could revolutionize several spheres in the social sector from the ground up. U jellllll?
The right mindset is learned outside of religion, not in it. I figured that out after leaving Christianity. Never more did I see the world more clearly, never more was I happier, and never more did I feel like I had actual control over my life.
I realized the people in charge of my life, the parents who raised me, were not fit to be my rulers. I only wish they could pay for enforcing such a mindset upon me when I was younger, but alas, I cannot. I see no point in making other people suffer even if they made me suffer for nearly all my life so far.
IIN to think that parents raising their children religiously should...
