"But that is no excuse for ignoring the responsibility of teaching kids about the faith - if we don't do it, they will accumulate the knowledge from somewhere else and it is bound to be more wrong than if they had got it from us!" Yet the sad fact is if Evangelicals teach kids the "faith", all the kids will hear about is Jesus, and that His ways are the one and only true way. If the kids learn about faith elsewhere there is some chance they will come into contact with Hinduism, Buddism, Tao, The Dreaming, etc, etc. The danger with Evangelizing is that it produces more Evangelists, not more Hindus etc. "But overall, the need is for us to lead them to Jesus, to the same extent that we should be leading adults to Jesus." Why not lead them all to Buddha? Peace be with you Rex Infinity |
