Well I do believe there are a bunch of superstitious religious pr*cks with twisted bigoted holier than thou attitudes in this world..what the f**k makes you think that just because you are religious,your kids are suddenly too good to play with non believers children..HYPOCRITES..is good manners and morals the exclusive preserve of your stupid religion?

Well I have no problem with my kids making friends with atheists. Cos I am also an open minded person and less religious..but I will be watchful of the impact they play in my kids life. Don't want someone imposing their dogmas on them.. But rather I want them to have a knowledge of all the religions and belief systems and applying the positives but not being governed by them

lanre316: Are there atheists in Nigeria or am I missing something? I have never seen an atheist in this country.

Believe you me there are a lot of us around,we just prefer to keep a low profile and let you religious guys get on with your zeal,sorta like the gays,you know..on a need to know basis...

Can't say yes or no cause i don't know them well enough to judge. I do know that some of them are free spirited and are more straight forward than most people who call themselves christians,muslims or traditionalists- who don't even know what their religion is all about. they preach one thing and do the entire opposite. Most preach what is entirely outside their religion.

would have loved to comment on this thread, but looking at the comments so far I'm assured that for each bigot there are a dozen objective and rational minds.

It depends on how you train your children.

Peterken05: They wouldnt do so, they prefer indoctrinating their children with bullshit right from birth.

Children should be allowed to choose freely what to belief and not forced or punished what believing or not believing. There is nothing like atheist children or christian children or muslim children, they are children for shit sake, they cant decide on their own, let them grow up to choose whatever they like

@ bolded: I will be a fool if I believe this. Because heaven knows contrary to the lie that atheism is not a belief, it is a belief stemming from materialism. You say this because a parent who forsakes the need to impart religion to his/her kids helps religion die; something you want.

Kay17: How is it possible for there to be love in separation??

You typically find it difficult to accept the reality of ironies and paradoxes or properly discern them. There can very well be love in separation. Fairly recently, a girlfriend insulted me (in the name of advice), I still love her anyway. I should hate her but I don't. That's love in separation, or love-hate if you will.

if religion is going to die as a result of that, so be it, what is the usefulness anyway.

Atheism is not a belief. It is a disbelief
