Attack of the Theocrats!
I wholehartedly agree with Dr. Dawkins.
We MUST stop this memetical virus, before all of our loved ones, our little sons and daughters succumb to this evil threat.
It makes fools of respectable parents, it plants its evil seeds into our fragile and defenseless children's unspoiled minds.
And I'm honestly puzzled by the clever arguments Dr. Dawkins is proposing.
a quote from the article: "urges society to respect a child's right to freedom of belief."
EXACTLY!
One day I was carrying my baby in a baby buggy on the street. One distant relative of mine has met me. He is a busy person, he doesn't have time, so it was understandable that he asked whether my child was a boy or a girl.
And I replied:
"I don't know. When he or she will turn 16, he or she will decide it for himself/herself."
I could see the disgust and incomprehension on his face.
I consider myself to be happy and lucky, to live a life like this.
