“Faith can be very very dangerous, and deliberately to implant it into the vulnerable mind of an innocent child is a grievous wrong”
— Richard Dawkins
Simplified Meaning:
Teaching children to believe in something strongly without question can be harmful. When children are young, they are easily influenced and do not have the ability to think critically about everything they are told. For example, if a child is taught to believe without question in something that limits their thinking or encourages harmful behavior, it can affect their ability to make good decisions later in life. This can be particularly damaging because children trust the adults around them and often cannot tell if what they are being taught is right or wrong. Instead, it's important to teach children how to think for themselves and understand different viewpoints before accepting something as true. This way, they can grow up to make informed choices and lead a balanced life.
