The thread title is about videos showing children talking/preaching about God -
How do you propose we leave God out of the discussion?

For those that think that these children are being "indoctrinated" - it's ironic that the United States Safe School Czar Kevin Jennings has quite a few "extremely graphic" eh, "literary works" listed on his "Recommended Reading List".
What are the books you ask? I can give you the titles - but due to the content, I can't post the summaries. Yes, they are THAT vulgar.
You can click HERE and pick which link you want to view to see the graphic details. And as you'll see, the content of these books would be considered "hard pornography" by most everyone.
Here is one of the websites summary of what they found in the books:
We were unprepared for what we encountered. Book after book after book contained stories and anecdotes that weren’t merely X-rated and pornographic, but which featured explicit descriptions of sex acts between pre-schoolers; stories that seemed to promote and recommend child-adult sexual relationships; stories of public masturbation, anal sex in restrooms, affairs between students and teachers, five-year-olds playing sex games, semen flying through the air. One memoir even praised becoming a prostitute as a way to increase one’s self-esteem. Above all, the books seemed to have less to do with promoting tolerance than with an unabashed attempt to indoctrinate students into a hyper-sexualized worldview. Source
Here are a few of the books' summaries - WARNING: Graphic Content.
Is this what you would prefer your children to be hearing and taught?

The Bible tells us, the believers, to judge righteously.
That "Judge thou not" line has been taken out of context - like most all of the other overused lines.
Do to others as you would have them do to you.
If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them.
And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' do that.
And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be repaid in full.
But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.
Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
Luke 6: 31-38 : Emphasis by v01i0

OHHHHHH... You are so right OP...we should all shuffle off our kids to GOVERNMENT RUN school to learn all about evolution, socialism, Obama priase, and humanism for eight hours a day, 7 days a week. BUT let's not DARE teach them about morals, God, family values, and social responsibility...THAT WOULD BE CHILD ABUSE.
You blind hypocrits. "My child can make up their own minds." REALLY...
Do you take them to church then and let them listen to the sermons to DECIDE if they accept it or not... I doubt it Commies. You would rather have the GOV. crame lies down their little throats and call it "open minded." Man the hypocracy reeks like death.

My pitch is that Jesus is the only escape from this miserable sinful life - period. And that is what I pray for all to come to believe.

What age group is this reading list aimed to?

Is that so hard to understand? Do you not get that just because we oppose you does not mean that we use the same brutal, inhuman tactics that you do?

I went thru a similar (tho different) thing:
My parents tried to teach me to drink, smoke, cuss (I curse like a sailor, but it's because my established control has been wiped out), and I refused them at every turn, making my life a living hell. It was decisions *I* made, all by my lonesome (meaning no influence from family members). Influence from God? Maybe. The jury is still out, due to extenuating circumstances.
I am willing to bet a lot of those kids in those videos had what they are showing off beaten into them, guilted into them, and driven into them- and I am willing to bet that when they hit their teens and/ or later life, they will have broken at least 3/4 of the 10 commandments... Just because they needed release.

That's where you're wrong. There's soooooo many people that live good lives, are helping their community, and don't commit any crimes...and they're NOT Christians. You don't HAVE to be Christian to be good and have a life that isn't miserable. To think so is very arrogant imo.
Also, you often say stuff like "I rather have them be indoctrinated than shoot drugs at 5". Life isn't about finding God or turning into an addict or bad person as the only alternative. You can be perfectly happy without believing.
