I am atheist, and being in the south in the bible belt fucking SUCKS as far as religion goes anyway...I have a nine year old son and I won't influence him either way but I will allow him to form his own opinion of what he believes in...

So you're wondering if an atheist or someone with a non-traditional faith has seen their kids turn to a conventional religion like Christianity? I haven't seen that happen, but I am sure that it has happened somewhere. But overall, I think religion is declining in importance in Western societies. Societies are getting more and more secular.

I'm not religious myself. I could entertain the possibility that some intelligent force created the universe, but I don't think spirits are in control of my life.

i think you'll see that change overnight if we do head into a holy war which i dont think is that remote a possibility.

people have kept remarkably level heads given whats happened in the last couple of years .. (and the not so stellar history of tolerence in the west) but one or two more incidences - especially on the home front - and no one will be able to hold back the dogs.

(a possible future that has me terrified by the way)

Stubborn...A person who practices Wicca (a Wiccan) is someone who believes in the ancient traditions of the whole of northern Europe and even the Hellenic traditions and Roman. They also practice Witchcraft. Witch being derived from the Anglo-Saxon term "to bend" or "wise" no one is certain which word it comes from. Anyway, they are apart of the Neopagan movement.

I am not Wiccan, though I am Neopagan. For the record, I don't plan on having children, and for me to put forth anything else into this thread would be like speaking to a large crowd of people who only understand Cantonese.
