while i suppose it's true that i can't prove that children are born without belief i would find it difficult to believe that they do since they don't even have a concept of their own hands.Those are your words, not mine. And you can't prove they are not. Earliest man has left traces that he believe in something bigger than himself. That will never change.children are born believing in a deity?That is mere assertion. A child has to be taught about atheism, there is no deity.
Doesn't work logically.
We are stuck with each other, and thank heavens for the Constitution.
Believe or not as you wish, but try not to interfere with others' beliefs. You have the protection of the Constitution and enough actual believers' support for your right to believe to not be threatened by the crazy social conservatives.
and i'm not disagreeing with you on the protections of the constitution.
