MODERATORS
here is my argument, most of my friends are some flavor of christian, and christening's are happening to their kids, if I suggested to them that their kids should be brought up rhe islam way, taught about it from the start etc, they would think I am trying to brainwash their kids, but ofc doing the same with Christianity is not brainwashing, it's normal. as someone who was completely isolated from religious brainwashing I don't think someone like you who I assume wasn't can ever comprehend how fucked up religion looks from the outside, no different from any other cult.
Funny because i don't think you understand my point of view either, especially if you're equating all christians with literalists, if you read the Bible you'll be forced to interpret it allegorically, which is why being raised in a nonreligious environment doesn't prevent from having misconceptions either.
But sincere thanks for your polite answer though.
