It is child abuse, of the worst kind.

They didn’t communicate the Gospel the right way to say the least. Or, you’re exaggerating. You’re talking about yourself I can tell.
Im not religuos, im not scared of it.
That is normal for how christians force there beliefs on EVERYONE.
I think that when it comes to christianity especially, parents should tell their children about God and how much he loves them, then about Jesus and he came to rescue them. Parents should allow their children to get close to God because jesus said “let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these”(Matthew 19:4). Then when they are old enough to understand, tell them about heaven and hell. And that jesus died so that those who accept him will go to heaven.
It is child abuse when you lie to children, like atheists do.
It is not only psychological abuse, it is a gross lie about God.
I believe that there is one god and that its not a religion to love the lord and have a relashipe with him and follow him and all you do and that if you live in the ways of the word and not his ways then when judgment come all will be judged and so is what you tech your children god bliss you and your family .

There is one thing that is WORSE than this as child abuse, and
that is brainwashing your child with evolution bullshit.
BTW, when I got older, and studied the subject of hell,
I fond that the ONLY authority was the Bible and not Dante,
and that HELL is nothing more that the GRAVE.

The only thing worse is to tell the child NOTHING, and let him go through life absolutely clueless.
At least, the indoctrinated child has information on which he/she can base a decision, albeit a dogmatic one.
Having NO information is MUCH worse, and failing to provide your children with ANY information to allow them to make adult decisions is far more abusive than simple indoctrination.
One who is indoctrinated CAN change their mind, when Free Choice is given to them. A person who has NO information cannot make a proper decision at any cost.
To the guy above, since when did science stop giving answers?
