Christians choose to teach their children about God and the Bible, because God is the truth and the Bible is His word.
Except of course the REAL truth is the Bible and its god are both plagiarized man made lies.

If your children were taught an evil, unsupported hypothesis like evolution in school would you not want them to know the truth? I would!
Except of course evolution, being a natural process, is not in any way evil (UNLIKE your blood stained Bible and its sadistic tribal god) and has overwhelming support in all aspects of nature, and just about every legitimate science there is (biology, geology, etc).
Sorry hun, you can repeat your little mantra as many times as you wish. Won't change reality.
Biblical passages such as Deuteronomy 11:19 has always been puzzling to me. Many Christians have used such passages as justification to drill their brand of Christianity into the heads of their children (without thought) as something noble. My question is, WHY are parents required to do this? Clearly, a parent will teach their children their flavor of belief and besides, isn't it telling that kids have to be TAUGHT god??? If, as some claim, belief in god is innate, but we suppress it because of our "evil nature," why aren't we left to discover god on our own, whenever and if ever?
Must kids be indoctrinated to be patriotic little buggers that fit into what society constrains them to doing?
Indoctrination happens, regardless. Some of fight against ALL indoctrination and hate law and government and society with a purple passion.
Humans are born with a capacity for language, but it's still a good idea to speak to your baby in your own language and try to get them to speak it. They might develop some sense of "God" on their own without instruction, but perhaps it would just be the equivalent of babbling without any supervision or communication. (Yes I know "all theism is babbling", but still...)
Of course he isn't. His guess is as good as mine....
