What, something like saying grace at dinner? Yeah, that never happens. Nobody ever tries to religiously indoctrinate children.

If I have to deal with living in this illogical world, then they can deal with my logical ideas (whenever they have the inconvenience to encounter them) without throwing an entitled hissy fit. In fact, I hope they have a problem, and want to talk to me about it. I'll be glad to have that discussion.

I actively reject the idea that we should tiptoe around people's stupid superstitious hogwashery. It only encourages them.
