My mother raised me completely without religion, even though she is a Christian. When I was old enough she explained why; she wanted me to make my own choices in the matter. I'm glad she did, I feel like the person I am today is completely my own. Whatever spiritual beliefs I have, I arrived at them by myself. Now that I am older, I think I'll raise my kids the same way. When they get old enough, they can read the various religious books (The Bible, The Quran, any others) and decide for themselves which one they believe in. Do any of you raise your children this way? How much value do you place on them making their own choices?
