Religion is Abuse [I Am Agnostic]

Raising a child to believe in something with zero evidence is brainwashing. You set that child up to become dependent on those beliefs so that even when they realize it's wrong, it's very difficult to break away. If religious people really believed in 'free will', they would stop brainwashing children to believe what they believe.

But so maybe they think the Founding Fathers had some free will. After all its a novel idea creating a special country JUST for neo-classic republican values and a new vision of government thats not top down. Its the will of the people after all.

They said God was great but after he set things all in motion, he decided the rest should be up to YOU AND ME.

Maybe that will help. Technically their faith was called "Deism", It was based on free will.

True story.
