Do you think it should be illegal for minors to be taken to church? [Spirituality & Religion]

No. I think it is good. Good parenting is hope for the future. Good parents raise their children to be obedient and faithful to the one true God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob. The more parents who raise their children properly, the better off the world will be when those children become adults.

I agree about the brainwashing...but no it should not be made illegal. This country was founded on freedom and one of those freedoms was to be able to believe and worship as one chooses without fear of persecution. I believe in separation of church and state for that reason. Think about it...if they make taking kids to church illegal (assuming we're taking about Christianity), then they'd have to make it illegal for parents of any religion or spiritual belief to expose their kids to it too. And then where does it stop? That would open a door for just having a spiritual or religious belief of any kind illegal. Religion would only be the tip of the iceberg...all of our freedoms would be in serious jeopardy. Is that what you'd want?

No. Jesus taught just the contrary. He said, not to keep little children away from Him.

We all have ways we are raised, some ways we wouldn't believe or practice when we have children ourselves. I was raised in a non religious home, and I wish I wasn't. Just for a greater understanding. More knowledge won't kill the kids, it's what they decide to do and how to go about that knowledge later in life. 🤷🏻‍♀️

No. We are all entitled to follow our own beliefs. I would never tell you what I thought was right or wrong for your family.

I went to church as a child. I tend to think I turned out pretty good.☺

I went to church until I was 8 or so.... it didn't scar me too much. 🤔

Don't think it's illegal but do think parents shld educate children in all reglious backgrounds... as well as atheism... when I told my parents I didn't believe in God they immediately thought I was believing in Satan & a goth & loved suicide & death & blood etc... i felt it unfair given I believed in being a gud person... do unto others as they unto to u... treat others fair & they treat u fair... why shld that be u set under faith? I don't think there is a higher power... everyone shld be educated that there are options but also no faith can solely give u a better 'being as a human'

As much as I'm against indoctrination of any kind, no. Freedom of religion, parents doing what they feel is best and all.

Well who is going to teach them about having faith then?

i wont take my future kids to church nor will i allow anyone from any clergy in contact with him/her. i don't want some pretentious old guy telling my child he could go to hell for not being part of there faith. no child deserves to suffer fear mongering. and im not even gonna start on the regular stream of child sexual abuse.

Why is it brainwashing?

Do you think it should be illegal for Islamic parents to take their kids to mosques or is it just church you have an issue with?

Illegal? No. Its a parents right to teach their children what the see as the truth, no matter how misguided and obviously wrong that bullshit may be.

Illegal to [b]force[/b] them. I wanted to go as a child.

no. kids need to go to church.

yes, conditioning a young child to believe a religion reduces their ability to learn about the world

The minute we are born we have others beliefs forced upon us

as much as I want to say yes I'ma have to say no

PraYZ to LotDs JesUZ TruMpUs BeSTz POTUS

I think it's child abuse

Do you think it should be illegal to not take them to the church? Or to mock any lifestyle in front of them?
