I find it depressing when I think of all the people throughout the world who dedicate themselves and their entire lives to fantasy. I suppose for many people it's a source of comfort so I can't really have a problem with that. But I'd rather live my life without worrying what the man in the sky thinks about my actions.

what about implanting hate towards Islamic faith in their minds?
================================================
It didn't do that, either, that's not how it was taught.
Like I said, they found it interesting. They've visited Islamic countries, too, (with us), and they asked a lot of questions, inspired by their studies.

It's a non-issue.
The more kids know about how other people live, and what they believe, the better.
Can't see any downside to it, at all.

So many cringeworthy posts on here. This article is rife with stupid people.

Morons been completely brainwashed by scientists and atheism.
Whatever though. What's shocking is the lack of respect they show to other people's faiths.

Shows how bad things are in modern society when you can't say anything about gay people, but can insult God. Sad times.

Shows your tolerance levels then doesn't it, dubbing people "morons" when you know nothing about them.

I'll be interested to read this thread. Hopefully it goes big without turning into a racist slanging match of sorts.

I think forcing children to study anything outside the basic academic skills is wrong.

We should be teaching children more about the dangers of healthy eating, smoking, drug abuse etc etc before we start telling them about myths.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

An estimated 2 billion people out of the 6.5bn in the world are religious, yet you'd choose to have children taught absolutely nothing about it?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I didn't read the link so not sure of the ages being talked about but kids under the age of say 12 should be taught life skills not myths IMO.

Every religion promotes peace and good morals.

What a moron you really are. So the make-believe, all powerful, Universe-creating, omniscient, eternal force that is God needs protecting from people's insults?

But the discriminated against and often hated and mocked gay people of the world should be open to abuse?

I can't tell if you're insinuating that's what Islam is about
============================================
No, I was just being facetious, they found it interesting. (so did I, in fact, when they told me what they were learning). It was more of a gentle dig at those who do think that's what it's about.

Because gay people are real but god isn't.

Maybe the same applies to you and your ilk when you spout disrespectful garbage about something you know very little about.

Depends on interpretation dubbed

posted on 28/11/13

dubbed, but morals are subjective.

You could argue every society promotes good morals doesn't mean they are.

the EDL and other such organisations are as bad as the religious extremists, but without the holy texts you dont get the extremists, because its their interpretation of the text, even though some of it isnt even there to be interpreted, its Mandated

And even if he was real I can't think of a single person who would need less protection from insults than God.

"Because gay people are real but god isn't."

One can easily say homosexuality is unnatural and feigned.
A sickness if you will. Just cause it is widely accepted by the masses doesn't make it right.
