i was thinking about why im agnostic. and i realized, its because i was raised in a christian community, not a jewish one. i never developed jewish ties.
so i was wondering, how do you feel about a child growing up in a community whose major religion is not their own? do you think its bad? do you think that children should grow up in their religious community only? what about public schools? and i searched. i really did. |

It's pretty simply to realize the truth here. Notice how geographical religious belief is. You may be hard pressed to find an Shintoist walking about at your local mall. However, no problem finding them in Japan. You know what you probably won't find in Japan though? A Christian.
Religious belief is highly geographical because of the power adults have an impressionable youth. What do you think getting them into church functions at an early age does to them? It's like intellectual rape. Isn't it awesome?!
