     ...
     If you think that this is far fetched, consider whether
     people should be allowed to raise their children in the
     religion of their choice. What if the religion of their
     choice is not a Christian one? What if it is Satanism a la
     Anton LaVey? or Scientology?
     ...
     Me, I go for freedom every time ....

I'd go for freedom most of the time too, and that's why I'd say that
parents shouldn't be allowed to force any religion on their children.
It should be the children's choice, because the children have the right
to be free of brain washing.
