It may be that there is "one true faith", but the evidence is against it. The evidence is that claims to "the Holy Faith" are disputed by 4000+, 43,000+ different sects, according to previous posts. At least 1000+ schisms within Christianity, each making a claim for the "right" church that provides everlasting salvation.
The sheer number of competing claims makes it impossible to choose correctly.
So what we do is to choose a faith community that seems to work for us in our time. It is significant that children are maleable--they grow up in one faith tradition, and only exceptional ones break away.
Thanks for your kind words...I think you are right, that most children do remain in the religion that they were born into...true, many folks do change religions, many folks become religious even tho they were not raised so, and some, even tho raised to be religious, throw off religion...
It is true I think, that a child, raised up from a very young age, within a particular religion, usually stays within that religion...now, that is my view, and apparently your view as well...I wonder if there has every been any extensive study done on this...it would be quite interesting...
