"What right does the parent have to foist a belief system off on their child? Especially if it is a belief system contrary to the norm in America, which thus guarantees that their children will be made a spectacle of in front of their peers?" JC, people "foist" their belief systems on their children all the time- and have, since time began- that's how we get baby Christians (as well as all other belief systems). I am sure your "ideas" about foisting a non-popular belief system on children could have been said, just as truly (perhaps more truly, since lives were at stake) about Jews in Europe during several periods of history. It is problematic that you would see foisting the popular religion on children as "better" than foisting other religions. You seem to be thinking that what is "popular" is good for kids. You know, Christianity didn;t start out that way, and I don't think Jesus would approve (he seemed to be a bit of a rabble rousing going against the human tide sort of guy). I hope you don't really mean what you have just said. Perhaps you did not think about what you just said and all the ramifications of your statement?
