minus-squareJasonDJ@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month ago force fed the bible. Dude…I was talking to my 5yo today. They’ve learned the pledge of allegiance in kindergarten. He recited it, perfectly, verbatim. I cringed slightly at the “under God” part, as I’m a devout atheist (though we’ve barely mentioned religion at all to the kids). Once he was done I asked him if he knows what any of it means. “No. But I can say the whole thing!” Smh.
