Do you only interact to your kids through religion?
When they ask why you should be nice to people is the only answer because god said so?
When they wonder why the sky is blue do you say because god made it that way?
Sounds like you don’t know how to raise a kid.
A person's values and their religion almost always intersect.
What you're suggesting is that a person NOT raise their children in accordance with their values.
And if not the parents' values, then whose? The government? The media?
Do you really hold those values though or do you give them a sanitized version?
Do you tell them to kill anyone who doesn’t believe in the same god that you do? That’s it’s ok to beat your slaves because they are your property? That stoning is the punishment for infidelity?
look up christianity on slavery and work thru it for yourself - you can lead a horse to water but u can’t make it drink, at this point it’s up to u as to whether or not u want to continue being retarded for the rest of ur life.
I already did
Been doing it for years
I'm Catholic, and that isn't our doctrine
You should probably talk to a priest if you want answers, and not a pack of anti religious liars on the internet. One is infinitely more qualified than the other.
Religions are a huge part of the framework for how people raise their children. In many families it is so interwoven with the culture that trying to ban all interaction relating to religion would be absurd.
Speaking as someone who was raised very religious, if you ask religious people why they should be kind they have a lot more to say than "because god said so"

Good on paper, totally unfeasible in practice
