PragerU huh? Yeah I'll pass. I watched about one minute of this and nearly threw up.
If someone wants to raise their kid and force them into their religious beliefs, that's on them. I will not teach my daughter about religion unless she asks me about it - and then she can read up on ALL religions. Not just Abrahamic ones. She can learn about the history and background of them all. If she wants to believe in a certain religion fine. As long as it doesn't influence her to harm herself or others, fine.
It's extremely easy to talk about death to a kid without talking about religion or a deity. I have talked to my daughter about it. She asked what happens when we die - I said no one knows. No one knows what happens when we die. Is there an afterlife or not? No one knows. Those are facts.
If people want to live their lives solely focused on some after life "reward" well I feel like that's a waste but it's your life to do it whoever does. I'm going to enjoy what time I have in this life and whatever happens, happens. If there is some deity and an afterlife and they want to punish me for not worshipping them, so be it. That to me sounds like an extremely petty, jealous abusive deity honestly.

I told them what GOD told me. Every word written about god was written by a person. Take that for what it is worth

Nice, you listened when it was stated that God told the different Disiples what to right, hence the reason there is no author listed on the Bible.

You talk to "god?" Which god? There's thousands of gods out there in humanity. If you have talked to god...and heard a voice back I suggest seeking some professional help.

SFC Kelly Fuerhoff - He talks to me at his pleasure. He didn't put us here to sing his praises.

SSG Edward Tilton Then ok...why did your god put humans here if that's the case? As a deity what does it want then?
