Kids' faith 2

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

Good news - children seem to be "hardwired" to believe in God. So the advice of yesterday's therapist to bring them up with that faith is well-founded and natural.

"Are children predisposed to belief in a transcendental being?" A developmental psychologist at Oxford University has been researching that question for years. Now her research and her conclusions are published.


It will be a surprise to many, perhaps, but her research indicates that it's likely that children (of whatever ethnicity) are "hardwired" to believe in God.

Both children and adults can be talked out of it. Famous atheist Richard Dawkins tries his best to do that, as do others.
