RE: [asa] Dawkins, religion, and children

Priestly child abuse will forever plague the Catholic Church as long as
they forbid marriage for their priests and surround them with tempting,
adorable little altar boys. It's like filling your gas tank while
lighting a cigarette. Most of the time, you can get away with it.

Atheism for Dawkins like YEC for Morris is a source of income. As long
as there are those who continue to butter their bread, there will always
be these ministers of misinformation filling their bellies. If anything
these harlots should be a constant reminder of how important it is to
explore the middle ground, find acceptable alternatives, and reach the
masses with better solutions.

As for warning our children about the possibilities of eternal
punishment, better warning them than for them to discover it firsthand.
How we teach them is the issue. As I child I was taught to pray: "Now I
lay me down to sleep ." That made me fearful of going to sleep because
I thought I might "die before I wake."
