Is it hypocritical for people to claim to be against “indoctrination” but are fine with religious indoctrination?

[SmokinAces2000]

Yes

No

[SaoirseS]

Of course it’s hypocritical. To call it anything else is delusional. Dragging kids off to church, giving no latitude to question anything they’re taught, and lobbying to put it in schools - May be with the best of intentions, but it’s indoctrination no matter how you slice it.

[jshm2]

That's fucking retarded of you.

Books don't spring arms and indoctrinate people. If they did, libraries would be dangerous places.

Maybe that's why your intellect is low, you've never stepped in a library.

[SmokinAces2000]

When did I say that books indoctrinate people, I would suggest that you work on your comprehension skills before commenting on questions

[Echosoul]

They are used as a tool to indoctrinate. By reading out

[Guy13]

Your thinking is not sensible. Indoctrination is False and God is truth that can be reasoned to a mind that has not been indoctrinated or a heart harden and given up to his Lusts.

[joeldalton]

So you’re fine with replacing religion with government?

[SmokinAces2000]

People can believe what they want but if you are forcing your kids to go to church and telling them that they must follow everything the Bible says than that is indoctrination

[joeldalton]

You're forcing your kids to go to governmental indoctrination centers for 12 years.

[SmokinAces2000]

You thinking that something is indoctrination doesn’t make it indoctrination

[joeldalton]

Hm. Maybe read your reply to yourself.

[SmokinAces2000]

Indoctrination “the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs uncritically” by definition religion is indoctrination

[joeldalton]

Same for the modern school system.

[SmokinAces2000]

And what makes you so sure that this is the case

[joeldalton]

Having had children go through the school system I see it first hand.

[SmokinAces2000]

Something tells me that what you are calling “indoctrination” is just stuff that you don’t like

[joeldalton]

Once again, you're projecting, lol.

[SmokinAces2000]

I’m not projecting anything as what I said was indoctrination actually was

[joeldalton]

And you’re calling stuff you don’t like “indoctrination”

[SmokinAces2000]

You must lack comprehension skills

[joeldalton]

What I don’t lack is the ability to see truth.

[SmokinAces2000]

If that were the case you would be agreeing with me

[joeldalton]

I agree that schools are indoctrination

[SmokinAces2000]

Do you have any unbiased sources to back this up

[joeldalton]

You made a biased assertion in your question. I’m not under any obligation to provide a higher standard

[SmokinAces2000]

How was it biased?

[joeldalton]

Are you an atheist?

[SmokinAces2000]

Nope

[joeldalton]

Regular church goer?

[SmokinAces2000]

Nope.

[Anonymous]

Another anti-religious bigot whose ire only seems to extend to Christianity.

[SmokinAces2000]

It’s not anti religious to point out true indoctrination

[anylolone]

State indoctrination, they cry about state maoist anti American indoctrination.
So no.

[Anonymous]

Yeah, that why I'd ban schools and religion
