Kids raised with Religion.

I was raised with religion but without god, does that make any sense?

You mean you just went through the motions, the rituals?

sort of...
not really? praying was never essential.

I guess that I was one of the lucky people where my family, friends and Religion were all positive roles in my childhood. 🙁

I appreciate all the well thought posts everybody.....except for Boris' post.

He's a troll.

It depends on the kids and the parents.I was raise in a religionish cult up till I was twelve and we got kicked out.My parents were very strict and my two oldest brothers rebel againist them for that.
So if you are overly Religish on your kids they will rebel.JM

Of course kids raised with religion are more well behaved.

They think that if they aren't well behaved, they're going to be ass raped by a ****ing demon for all eternity when they die.

Yes, because God is not religion, and religion can be mistaken about God.

Now you were raised in a cult?

On top of that, how off the mark do you have to be to get kicked out of a cult?

So, if you were raisened in an extreme religionish cult, and you think being overtly religionish with your kids will clause them to rebel, why are you being so religionish?DK

I am curious as to how:

[list=1][*]Religious and Christian are defined for the purposes of this study.

[*]The methodology used which allows being raised in a religious household to be isolated and identified as the cause of good behavior.[/list]

It isn't isolated as the cause. The study isn't of that scope. It is simply showing a correlation. A high correlation usually leads to more specific studies.

Hooray for hollow victories!

It's the supportive environment and discipline that makes these children behave better, not the fundamentals of the religion itself.

That is key.

Yes I was raise in a cult.If you want to look it up online it is under The people of Hope. Don't have a link but I am sure that name will pop up being that I had looked it up before.
We were thrown out because my dad wanted to take a break from it and the leaders there said that we had to leave because no one takes breaks from this cult.
My brothers who got the worst of this cult then me had rebel in different ways towards my parents because of it.I think forcing your child to do certain things well cause them to rebel when they are older because of being force to do these things they don't want to do.
Do you get what I am trying to say?Link. http://members.tripod.com/~PeopleofHope/index.htm

You were part of a cult ?

Yes till I was twelve.Go to the link I have on my last post and check it out it is quite interesting.jm

Why ?

How was that experience ?

Uh let's see.Strange I guess.I am going to write a book on it at some point.For what I remember is that we all live in the same neighood with other members did everything together including going to mass going to geatherings and going to camp and school.
Also following some rules such as woman not be able to wear jeans but had to wear skirts.Believe it or not the first time I wore jeans was when I was twelve and we were out of the cult.
Strange also rock music was not allowed to be listen too.And certain toys were not alowed to be played with such as barbies it was pretty mess up.jm
