Ah yes, more snippets of wisdom from our friendly atheist crowd. Here's an answer a guy gave when asked what would he do if his kid decided to follow God:

iF you are a free thinker if one of your kids insisted on GOD being the creator would you listen and not try to change thier mind!!?

"if one of your kids..?"
I would be most perturbed if they were buying into Creationisms, since such a world view requires a complete leave of sensibility, and would seek the appropriate anti-cult psychological counciling (as well as sue whomever had their kid preaching to my kid on the playground)...
2) If they insisted on there being something of a divine, however, I would try my best to steer them towards Deism via the works/writings of Einstein, Hawking, Jefferson and Spinoza; hopefully, they will seek a reverence for the cosmos rather than buying into primitive dogmatism of some culturally-relative mythology.
Sue whomever had their kid preaching to them on the playground. Okay, first of all, isn't this really infringing on a kid's right to choose? And isn't America founded on the right to choose for yourself? Or maybe I'm wrong there?
