Ida Claire posted a blog postNational Day of Prayer
So our government officially recognises our country as being "Under God", and by extention, Christian, by encouraging it's citezens to pray to pray? So messed up if you ask me. Anyways, I went to the website to scope out the enemy (just kidding) and they had a donation page (Oh yeah, I forgot that God charges you to telepathically speak to him), as well as instructions on HOW TO PRAY. http://nationaldayofprayer.org/ "Usually Satan will try to…See More

Don't act like you know me. I don't shove my ideas down his throat. I AM teaching him to be respectful of other's beleifs. Also, I can't control the fact that he copies me, and if you have ever had a…"
Chris Jackson commented on Ida Claire's blog post 'SUCCESS!! I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11.'"I have to say, I agree with Ava. Teach critical thinking and the rest will follow"
Albert Bakker commented on Ida Claire's blog post 'SUCCESS!! I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11.'"Don't worry Ida, you really don't control his mind, he probably just thinks his sister is cool, following her own mind. There'll come a day he's going to experience some ambivalence in that regard and then later yet he'll…"
Ida Claire commented on Ida Claire's blog post 'SUCCESS!! I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11.'"I didnt try to talk him into anything, he just started doing it. Hes more mature than the average 11 year old. Its weird, because I'm not even encouraging it. I definetly see your points though. All parents should give…"
Ethan Levy commented on Ida Claire's blog post 'SUCCESS!! I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11.'"i agree with most above me, you should let them decide until they are older enough to choose, i have a little sister the same age, my mother MAKES her go to church but i see that she hates it most kids do but my sister hates if for another reason…"
Ryan Murillo commented on Ida Claire's blog post 'SUCCESS!! I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11.'"To borrow the idea from Ava's comment this is indeed no better than Christians, Muslims, Hindus, etc. teaching their children to be theists. You've said it yourself that he's just copying what you do. I doubt he can take that…"
Ava Wilson commented on Ida Claire's blog post 'SUCCESS!! I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11.'"Can't say I approve. That's not a good way to teach a younger child about Atheism. Allowing him to do it for sake of copying is no better than Christians teaching children to be Christian because of their tendency to mimic their ideas and…"
Albert Bakker commented on Ida Claire's blog post 'SUCCESS!! I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11.'""Soon, I will be able to succesfully control their minds."
Could it be perchance that you might be tiny bit too ambitious in this respect?

SUCCESS!! I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11.

SUCCESS!!
I have successfully de-converted my brother, 11. I have been writing REASON in place of GOD, and he has been doing that too. I make fun of Christianity, he does. Part of it may just be him copying everything I do (I play an instrument, he does. I love a movie, he does. I come to terms with the Magic Skyman delusion, so deos he). Hopefully, he will stick with reason throughout.
Anyways, I just wanted to share my small victory with the atheist world. I have…
