This right here is the problem. You can argue against her points, many of which I disagree with, without calling her filth. That just shows emotion and irrationality, a common fault with the religious. Resorting to such tactics shows a flaw in one’s argument imo, an inability to effectively counter your opponents points.

That said, questioning isn’t bad. What you call “influences” is called broadening your perspective. If you keep your kid sheltered of course they will never realize that there are other things in the world. If this is the way to keep someone religious then you need to reevaluate the value of religion. I’m confident I could let my kid read Dawkins, Hitchens, and any other manner of atheistic texts and they would still have a healthy respect for religion. They would not be morons who believe in fairytales and fantasies, nor would I wish them to be. Teach your kids to be critical thinkers and value the practice of religion, and its benefits beyond simply avoiding hellfire.

Ghost, my bad , if it came across as if I am calling the writer of that article /blog filth. I exclaimed with that word at what I read ! every word of that article I felt was nothing but crap. Nevertheless, tolerance would be when a non muslim says these things , its then that you think , Islam is new to them. But a person, born in a muslim household, claims to be a muslim and then decides to disrespect Islam is just plain crap and at least worthy of being told off for their views.

Influences are part and parcel of life, no one will ever live a life without influences of sorts. That is why I said I cannot protect my kid from experiencing them. I can only teach him how to deal with them without losing his own faith. I am not a molvi who believes in living in a bubble and completely agree with you in what you said in the later half of your post.
