It pisses me off to no end. Keep off the children! I saw a news report where a woman said that they should be allowed to pass them out, because the kids can always refuse to take it. They are children. I just really will never ever understand why anyone feels ok with religion in public schools, maybe someone here can make me understand why you think it is ok?

They are passing out Gideon Bibles. Here is the story.

I recently had a conversation about something similar with an Evangelical acquaintance of mine and when I asked how would you appreciate if atheists went to your children and said there is no God and started giving rational arguments for why they don’t believe and why they completely disagree with actively trying to convert people. His response was, I don’t mind at all, I know my kids are secure in their beliefs. I say bullshit! Atheists don’t go after children, he has no idea, if his kid has a brain in her head how much it might make her think or question, because he lives in such a Christians place he, they, are not exposed to many atheist conversations, he just has assumptions of what they think and say. At least that is my own assumption. To this day I would guess he thinks I am a theist.

I don’t want anyone to gang up on a particular jelly on the Q, I want to genuinely here the answers. I know I showed a little anger in my question, general anger, but I don’t want anyone to think I will attack anyone in Christians personally.
