In our age of neurotic parenting, it should come as no surprise that
irreligious parents might succumb some to the evidence-free claims of many that
children must be raised in a faith tradition in order to achieve some
ill-defined "values". Andrew Park at Salon has a piece
up about his attempts to inject a little religion into the holiday
festivities. (By "religion", he of course means
"Christianity", because as concerned as he is about exposing his
children to faith traditions, he isn't concerned enough to start fasting for
Ramadan and teaching his children about the prophet Mohammed.)
