So you feel you were abused as a child then?
Most kids seem to deal with it pretty well...
Is it only religion that gets this treatment or do all social constructs get it too? Should we not teach them our moral and political values and let them come up with their own?
Yes, I do. Again though, going back to earlier in the thread and the stigma around the term "child abuse" then I'd say my trust was abused.
I've dealt with it quite well. What religion, or lack of, that someone believes in is their own personal business, not mine or anyone elses. I firmly believe that people's right to be religious is to be defended.
The last part is quite interesting. I think you've maybe pointed out that it's not as black and white as I'm thinking.
So while I'm saying that making kids sing hymns is wrong, you're saying that it may also be wrong to tell them that the poor should be fed, or it may be wrong to tell them the poor should not be fed.
Something that makes it easier to distinguish between them is that it's clear that political and moral views are an opinion, and they are not fact. Religion presented as scientific fact is wrong. Political and moral beliefs are about what we should do, which implies a choice. Again telling a kid they should believe in God is different to saying that 2,000 years ago a man rose from the dead 3 days later and performed miracles. The latter is presenting something which may or may not have happened as fact.
