Where do we draw the line? If christians are allowed to indoctrinate children why shouldn't other groups be allowed to indoctrinate childen with their beliefs?


EDIT:
I'm asking about christians attempting to indoctrinate children in general. I don't mean parents teaching their own children.

@MrGrey: Unconditionally? What about other religions?

@suzie1960: I'm not fond of religion in general, but I think parents should have the right to raise their kids according to what they think is right.

@suzie1960: I see. But the ones who usually indoctrinate children are the parents.

@MrGrey: Fair point but I don't believe society should interfere too much with the family. I'm more concerned about christian zealots corrupting children in general. In the UK it's actually a legal requirement for schools to force students to take part in acts of christian worship. :(
