Much more important? Have you no self pride? This Fr. Baron makes a living upon you ignorance.
You'd do best to stand up, question the authority of these bullshit artists and Charlatans, unless you like the land of make believe.

I'll add a few things and that's it.

1. There is no such thing as a "Christian child." At least, no such thing as a "Christian child" or "Muslim child" until the age of 10. Why label by religion? Because of tradition? Because you were born "into" a Christian family? Absurd. Religions aren't communities. They are a set of beliefs, most of them are garbage and subjective. There are communities of people who subscribe to said garbage beliefs, but these people are mostly old enough to have conscious thought about it. Babies and young children know not of subjective and religious thought. They may be curious about new faces, but virgin births, resurrections and the tenets of Christianity fly through their head. If you don't believe in the Semitic-Abrahamic God, you can't be a Christian, a Jew (debatable) or a Muslim (not debatable) and since babies lack belief in God, they are better described as "atheists" since atheism is not active or even positive, but is just there. Babies don't believe in God or any gods, so they're not theists.

2. I resent the fact you didn't quote the Christian or Muslim part. Would you call a baby a Jehovah Witness, simply because they were "born" to the community? Well, hope that baby doesn't get injured, taken to the hospital and dies because of their parent's dumbass labeling and negligence. JWs don't do blood transfusions, so if anything should happen to their child, a fatal occurrence could occur. But it's okay, the "Jehovah's Witness" baby is fine with it. NOW do you see the problem with labeling?

3. The genetic/nationality argument. I'm ethnically Japanese, as I should tell you. My Y-DNA is halpogroup D, a common occurrence within Japanese people. That comes from my dad. I can't help that. My nationality, whilst I can change, it is more of legal document than anything else. I'm a dual Japanese-Canadian citizen. What am I? You could attempt to stereotype me, but my citizenships tell you squat about my personality, political beliefs or way of life. As mentioned before, religion is personal baggage and is highly opinionated. Key word. OPINIONATED. What opinions do kids have about Marxism? None? Then why call Peter a "Catholic"or Sayyid a "Muslim?2 Because their parents are? Give me a break. You can't have it both ways. Either I was a social-democrat at the age of 3, or Peter's not a Catholic. Choose one. It IS the same thing. Both Catholicism and Marxism are opinionated, subjective and often dangerous ideologies not understood by adults, let alone kids below the age of 10. You should teach kids how to think, not WHAT to think. We share DNA with each other as it is. Don't push your silly fairy tales on your children, or you are guilty of abuse. You have no right.

I totally agree with you, David. Well said.

This is a two-year old debate, and I have little interest in reviving it, but I think Dawkins is mostly (though not entirely) wrong to compare being a Christian or Muslim child to being a "Keynesian child" or a "postmodernist child." Being of a certain religion is more than having a specific set of beliefs. It is being accepted into a community of which the parents are only two members. And certainly by age 4 any child raised in a particular religion has, at least in rudimentary form, the fundamental beliefs of that religion.

Much as I wish it had been possible in my case, I don't see any way to raise children in a "fair and balanced" manner so that they can choose a belief system when they are 12, or 16, or 18, or whatever.

Atrocious comparison. Your nationality says nothing about your beliefs, politics or person. Religion implies some very subjective opinions, which babies don't have. There is NO SUCH THING AS A CHRISTIAN CHILD!

Of course, since it's discussing magical water and spells, it's witchcraft and I want no part of it. I unbaptized myself and never felt better. Out of the sheep pen and into the wild, you might say.

That's it. Now, if only the Church remove me from their count so they could not misrepresent their true size.
