Meddling? LOL.
Frankly, I was just hoping to help them make a decision that they were clearly having difficulty with.
As for my objections being "covered" by Dawkins, I have no doubt that he has done so. But it certainly does no harm to contest his point of view.
My challenge remains - if Dawkins is wrong, then you lose your life. Dismissing my comments means you're willing to bet your LIFE that Dawkins is right and I am wrong. This is what it all boils down to.
I reiterate my comment made in this thread on 26 November 2005
"The shame is not in presenting the awfulness of Hell to our children, rather the shame lies in failing to help them understand how to escape from it, and thereby allowing them to continue wallowing in the fear of Hell and an eternity spent in it."
