Raising your children Free-From-Religion (Websites, Videos, Articles, Camps, Books)

“For thousands of years, through a shamelessly dishonest and unethical tradition of indoctrination, theists have exploited helpless children and taken over our world. Many theists force their children to make one of the most important and complicated decisions of their lives before the age of critical thinking, logic, reason and the ability to read and understand the scriptures being used to program them. We can not be afraid to end this cycle. Only our children can bring about the real and sustaining change that is needed in the world. Providing truth and knowledge to children is the most important part our fight for that change to embrace freedom, unity, equality, human rights, justice and peace for ALL people. We must not pay attention to the propaganda, in which theists’ project that we are indoctrinating by raising our children Free-From-Religion. Every baby is born an Atheist and Free-From-Religion. It is our natural-born free-state of being and we must protect our children from the infection of religion as we would from any child-hood disease." ~Eric Craig
